For those of you who don't know he's the author of Fight Club. He also wrote 2 other books Survivor and Invisble Monsters. Just recently read Survivor would have to say I like it more then Fight Club and haven't read Invisble Monsters yet. I aboslutely love his writing style very unique. Anybody else read his stuff, any comments? |

It's Palahniuk
Yes. Fight Club is my all-time favorite movie/book besides A Clockwork Orange (Burgess is pretty much the apex of amazing literatary skills).
Will check out Survivor and Invisible Monsters. Although I'd say the writing style for Fight Club only fits Fight Club...for anything else I probably wouldn't like it... |

damn typo... hey it's a pretty tricky last name too
You might be surprised w/ how well the writing style works in Survivor (don't let the corny title fool you). Definately entertaining and worth checking out. Has anybody read it? |

Oh yeah, i've read the book, seen the movie. Like them both..a lot. Brad pitt was amazing in the movie, i think it was his best acting ever. The book is realy great also. Lots of valuable quotes, sorry, can't post any. I've read the lithuanian translation of the book, so I don;t think i'd write anything interesting.. Talking about style, love those short - one word sentences. |
