Patrick Bateman, Jr. (Chapter 2) - Apple Picking

“I had all the characteristics of a human being—flesh, blood, skin, hair—but my depersonalization was so intense, had gone so deep, that my normal ability to feel compassion had been eradicated, the victim of a slow, purposeful erasure. I was simply imitating reality, a rough resemblance of a human being, with only a dim corner of my mind functioning." ― Bret Easton Ellis, American Psycho Hosted on Acast.
