I also love Rant. :3

Chuck's new book Pygmy comes out next year.

Release: May 5th
Product Description:
“Begins here first account of operative me, agent number 67 on arrival midwestern American airport greater _____ area. Flight _____. Date _____. Priority mission top success to complete. Code name: Operation Havoc.”

Thus speaks Pygmy, one of a handful of young adults from a totalitarian state sent to the United States, disguised as exchange students, to live with typical American families and blend in, all the while planning an unspecified act of massive terrorism. Palahniuk depicts Midwestern life through the eyes of this thoroughly indoctrinated little killer, who hates us with a passion, in this cunning double-edged satire of an American xenophobia that might, in fact, be completely justified. For Pygmy and his fellow operatives are cooking up something big, something truly awful, that will bring this big dumb country and its fat dumb inhabitants to their knees.

It's a comedy.

Finished Diary the other day. Talk about tedium and a half.

So I've finished Fight Club, Diary, and Choke. Thinking of either Lullaby or Invisible Monsters next.

Diary was probably the worst thing that I've ever read.

Survivor is good though, you should try to find that one. It's probably my favorite novel of his.

Default Choke
The story of a man/boy who works in the 18th century, visits sexaholics counselling to find friends and get tips, impersonates his senmile mother's friendsn to get info on his childhood from her and everynight pretends to choke half to death so people will love him and send him money.

Anybody read this? (Same author as Fight Club)

It wasn't my favorite of his, although I'm not sure altogether why. I found it really difficult to get into though.

Why is the DVD of Choke so expensive?! I just want to watch it so I can laugh as it fails to accurately follow the book but I'm not paying £20 for it!!
