So, I know I told you all to focus on a textual source. But I am going to suggest that one of the most popular sources that you all found, "“It’s a Face-Lifted, Tummy-Tucked Jungle Out There,” New York Times, June 9." by Amy Spindler, is exemplified in the brilliant corporate satire/horror film American Psycho.
This film portrays a corporate sociopath, who murders people--women and men--for no real reason. Below is the opening scene of the film, which suggests a creepy marriage between corporate life, beauty, and violence. Unfortunately, youtube will not let me embed this, so I have to merely provide a link:
Patrick Bateman's opening scene
"There is an idea of a Patrick Bateman. Some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me."
