Eine Familiensaga, die zum Welterfolg wurde: Isabel Allende erzählt die wechselhafte Geschichte der Familie des chilenischen Patriarchen Esteban Trueba und seiner hellsichtigen Frau Clara und führt uns mit der ihr eigenen Fabulierkunst durch eine Zeit, in der persönliche Schicksale und politische Gewalt eng miteinander verwoben sind. Der Erfolg dieses Buches verdankt sich dem hinreißenden Erzähltemperament Isabel Allendes: Mit Phantasie, Witz und Zärtlichkeit malt die Autorin das bunte Tableau einer Familie über vier Generationen hinweg.

Now a major motion picture from Lion's Gate Films starring Christian Bale ( Metroland ), Chloe Sevigny ( The Last Days of Disco ), Jared Leto ( My So Called Life ), and Reese Witherspoon ( Cruel Intentions ), and directed by Mary Harron ( I Shot Andy Warhol ). In American Psycho , Bret Easton Ellis imaginatively explores the incomprehensible depths of madness and captures the insanity of violence in our time or any other. Patrick Bateman moves among the young and trendy in 1980s Manhattan. Young, handsome, and well educated, bateman earns his fortune on Wall Street by day while spending his nights in ways we cannot begin to fathom. Expressing his true self through torture and murder, Bateman prefigures an apocalyptic horror that no society could bear to confront. Described by Publishers Weekly as a grisly, gritty gross-out (about) the cool yuppie lifestyle of Patrick Bateman, 26, whose avocation is torturing and dismembering his female victims and festooning his apartment with their body parts, this book by the author of Less Than Zero is sure to cause a stir.
