  Bret Easton Ellis

  Bret Easton Ellis is an American author and screenwriter. Ellis was one of the literary Brat Pack and is a self-proclaimed satirist whose trademark technique, as a writer, is the expression of extreme acts and opinions in an affectless style. His novels commonly share recurring characters.
  When Ellis was 21, his first novel, the controversial bestseller Less than Zero (1985), was published by Simon & Schuster. His third novel, American Psycho (1991), was his most successful. Upon its release the literary establishment widely condemned it as overly violent and misogynistic. Though many petitions to ban the book saw Ellis dropped by Simon & Schuster, the resounding controversy convinced Alfred A. Knopf to release it as a paperback later that y

  Dušan Jovanović

  Dušan Jovanović se je rodil leta 1939 v Beogradu. Po koncu vojne, leta 1953, se je z očetom preselil v Ljubljano. Leta 1965 je diplomiral iz angleščine in francoščine na ljubljanski Filozofski fakulteti ter absolviral režijo na Akademiji za gledališče, radio, film in televizijo. V dramah raziskuje eksistencialno in družbenozgodovinsko problematiko modernega porevolucijskega obdobja. Bil je med prvimi, ki so v slovenski dramatiki uporabili ideje čistega oz. skrajnega modernizma. V svojih prvih delih se je tematike loteval v slogu dramatike absurda, nato bolj realistično in angažirano, približal se je tudi postmodernizmu.
