like you singleserving friend, i think Kliz is hooked with Chuck Palahniuk too. she even bought a signed copy First Edition of the Fight Club book. i couldn't stop her... the book's worth every cent.

i really enjoyed Fight Club, not just bcuz edward norton was on it. i thought Palahniuk was one of those on-hit wonders and i didn't know that he had other books until Kliz lent me Diary. i even got myself a copy of Lullaby. both books are witty, funny and morbid... i like so like them! not to mention, the thoughts he imparts... makes me lament the passing of reason from people's minds.

I've read Fight Club, Choke, and Survivor.

I highly recommend Choke.

Wow. I would never be able to afford that. Good for her! I almost never buy books brand new but Chuck is an exeption (and Trainspotting). I can't remember which I loved first, ED Norton or Fight Club, although Ed certainly makes the movie better.
That's precisely why I love his books. They're so dark but humorous at the same time and allude to a greater purpose/issue than to thrill or entertain (though it DOES entertain,a lot). There is always a profound thought or meaning behind all the *** and gore and wierd factoids. That has been one of the criticisms about his writing though, that the narrator always seems to have the same voice, whether s/he be a man or woman, a former model, a white collar worker or the sole survivor of a death cult.
Anyway, I found that I seem to be a fan of Transgressional fiction because I seem to relate to the feelings of discontent of the characters. Albeit, they do deal with the feelings in a much more extreme manner...
whew!

i've only read Fight Club and Invisible Monsters and that was a long time ago. kalimut nako sa storya. cool pod ang author sa trainspotting (irvine welsh), i read a few of his books, you'll probably like him too.

yeah, i just bought trainspotting, actually, di gyud "just", taudtaud na pud but i haven't had the chance to finish it yet kay na busy ko sa school.. krun summer, i'll be sure to finish it. Murag Transgressional fiction man sad na si Irvin Welsh. One author that I would love to read pero wa pa gyud nako makit-an is Bret Easton Ellis, author sa American Psycho...

sorry, ako ning reply, wrong account akong na gamit!! dili akong accout ([size=10pt]sa akong father hehehe [/size]

[annais]

oh yeah... me too. i like characters who struggle from the society's norms and whims. i remember one friend said something about palahniuk after reading Lullaby, "he's probably one author who makes me think twice about going down... i didn't know oral *** can be fatal. damn!"

anyway, if any one of you is interested in buying a signed copy first ed of the book Fight Club, i know someone who's selling another copy. you may also wanna check out his site at http://www.avalon.ph/auction/xcAuction.asp
