Imperial Bedrooms


So the new Bret Easton Ellis book Imperial Bedrooms is bad, but I think my least favorite part is the author's picture on the dust jacket.

This is the picture of a man who desperately needs to be punched in the face.

(For those of you who would be interested in a picture of a naked man using the book cover of Imperial Bedrooms to shield his nudity, visit my new tumblr: Naked Bookshelf--all of the cool kids have narrowly-specific tumblr feeds, and I didn't want to feel left out.)
Here lies a most ridiculous raw youth, indulging himself in the literary graces that he once vowed to eschew. Now he just rocks out.
