The Shards (2023) by Bret Easton Ellis is a dark, suspenseful coming-of-age novel set in 1981 Los Angeles, where an elite group of privileged high school seniors finds their carefully curated world unsettled by the arrival of a mysterious new student. Narrated by a fictionalized version of Ellis himself, the story blends teenage obsession, glamour, and paranoia as rumors swirl about a serial killer known as “The Trawler” stalking the city. Bret Easton Ellis (b. 1964) is an American novelist associated with the “Literary Brat Pack,” known for his stark portrayals of consumerism, alienation, and moral detachment in late twentieth-century American culture. Ellis gained wide notoriety with American Psycho (1991), a controversial yet influential novel that became an international bestseller and was adapted into the acclaimed 2000 film starring Christian Bale.
