FIGHT CLUB By The first rule about fight club is you don't talk about fight club. In his debut novel, Chuck Palahniuk showed himself to be his generation's most visionary satirist. Fight Club's estranged narrator leaves his lackluster job when he comes under the thrall of Tyler Durden, an enigmatic young man who holds secret boxing matches in the basement of bars. There two men fight "as long as they have to." A gloriously original work that exposes what is at the core of our modern world.
Reviews“Diabolically sharp and funny.” (Washington Post Book World)
“An astonishing debut.... a dark, unsettling, and nerve-chafing satire.” (Seattle Times) “This brilliant bit of nihilism succeeds where so many self-described transgressive novels do not: It's dangerous because it's so compelling.” (Kirkus Reviews) “A ferocious, taut, mesmerizing novel whose economical stylishness and rigorous, perverse philosophical underpinnings put one in mind of Camus' The Stranger and J.G. Ballard's Crash.” (Dennis Cooper) “A noir fable with a potent punch.... A genuine, two-fisted talent.” (Katherine Dunn) “Amazing and artful disturbance. Fight Club is for everybody who thinks and loves the fine American language.” (Barry Hannah) About the AuthorChuck Palahniuk is the author of the best-selling novels Fight Club, Survivor, Lullaby, Diary, Rant, Damned, and many other works of fiction. He lives in the Pacific Northwest. ** We have several signed copies of this book.
