Patrick Bateman is the protagonist of Bret Easton Ellis’s American Psycho, a wealthy New York investment banker with a penchant for designer suits, luxury brands, and violent, psychopathic tendencies. Beneath his polished exterior, Bateman harbors a dark obsession with power, control, and extreme violence. His narrative explores the superficiality of 1980s consumer culture, blending satire with disturbing depictions of his unraveling mental state. Despite his monstrous behavior, Bateman remains a chillingly charismatic and complex character, reflecting the emptiness of excess and the darker side of human nature.
