Inhaltsangabe

The first rule about fight club is you dont talk about fight club. Chuck Palahniuks outrageous and startling debut novel that exploded American literature and spawned a movement. Every weekend, in the basements and parking lots of bars across the country, young men with white-collar jobs and failed lives take off their shoes and shirts and fight each other barehanded just as long as they have to. Then they go back to those jobs with blackened eyes and loosened teeth and the sense that they can handle anything. Fight club is the invention of Tyler Durden, projectionist, waiter, and dark, anarchic genius, and its only the beginning of his plans for violent revenge on an empty consumer-culture world.

Amazing and artful disturbance. ?Fight Club ?is for everybody who thinks and loves the fine American language. --Barry Hannah"

Reseña del editor:

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.
