Palahniuk, C: Shock Induction

Autor Chuck Palahniuk
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 oct 2024
First there was the insomnia.
Then there were the support groups that helped him sleep.
Then Marla Singer turned up, muscled in on ascending bowel cancer and ruined everything.
Then he met Tyler Durden.
Then came Fight Club. Mild mannered product recall specialist by day, tortured insomniac by night, our narrator is a discontented white-collar drone who longs to escape his everyday reality. Together with Tyler Durden - part-time projectionist, banquet waiter, soap-maker and anarchic genius - he creates Fight Club, where he and men like him can get away from their work-dominated, consumer-driven, image-obsessed lives.
Soon there are fight clubs in basement bars across the country; men with cuts, bruises, stitches and missing teeth wherever you look. Tyler Durden has become an urban legend - but when he invents Project Mayhem, things begin to escalate. There's only one thing to do: shut down Fight Club. But have they created a monster they can't control?

Recenzii

"The boldest book in a long while...ace" -- Lauren Laverne Grazia "A hilarious novel...as ever, Palahniuk is interested in pushing the limits. He leaps over the line of good taste - and lands squarely on his feet" Booklist "Brilliant... It has moments of poetry" Daily Telegraph "Brilliantly conceived, linguistically inventive and extremely rude" -- Anne McElvoy New Statesman, Books of 2009 "The novel abandons minimalism for a Clockwork Orange-style spin through a semi-invented language. Consequently, it's Palahniuk's most challenging book yet" -- Colin Waters The Sunday Herald

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:

Agent 67, nicknamed Pygmy for his diminutive size, arrives in the US from his totalitarian homeland (a mash-up of Communist-era China, North Korea, Cuba, and Nazi-era Germany), as an 'exchange student' into the welcoming arms of his Simpsons-spinoff Midwestern host family who introduce him to postmodern American life, which he views with utter contempt. Along with his fellow operatives, all indoctrinated into the totalitarian mindset, he is planning something big, something truly, truly awful, that will bring this big dumb country and its fat, dumb inhabitants to their knees. Palahniuk's finest, most ambitious novel since 'Fight Club'.
