I completely understand what you are saying, the actual content and actions of patrick are disgusting. My appreciation from this book comes from the writing, by the end of the book you hardly notice when characters start switching names mid paragraph, descriptions of someones suit will change mid party, etc. You have been sucked into the same mundane capitalistic world that bateman has and and none of the details really matter, it’s all bullshit. By the end of the book you are looking past all of these things, and you don’t care about the truth of what is actually happening, much like bateman. Say what you will about that actually making the book an entertaining read.
