  This book features a very vivid imagery. The transportation of colloquialisms and use of slang in dialogues, as well as a number of very short chapters that take the reader's attention hopping from scene to scene and from setting to setting, give the book a movie-like feel to it. Imagery and language are very modern and direct. The plot is very...basic. Spoilt, rich kids abuse drugs and get in contact with the dark side of society. In the end a good part of the mentioned characters die in a massacre inflicted by another spoilt youth. The actual "protagonist", well educated, successful if unmotivated drugdealer, disillusioned, disappointed and bored, escapes to Paris.A fun book to read on the train or in the bus (or at the desk with a contemporary slang dictionary running on the computer), but nothing I would read twice.
