He's an amazing author, they just came out with a movie of the book Choke, he is also the author of Fight Club. The movie is no where near as good as the book, they changed alot of stuff, including the ending. I recomend reading it over the book, or ANYTHING he has written in general, he will change your life. ;D

havent seen the movie yet, found the book to me quite good. laughed when victor shit and anal beads and all the other crap exploded out of him

Yeah, Palahniuk is one of my favorite authors... I read Choke and just finished Haunted a couple of days ago... very entertaining author.

Great part in the book, also noticed i was a bit stoned or something and said book over book, but you know what i meant. xD

I found the movie to be a fair adaptation of the book. It tried hard, and I think it did fair justice to the piece. I never expect much from movies formerly known as books and this one exceeded my expectations. Excellent work.

While I will be the first one to say that I truly enjoy Palahniuk's writing, it does annoy me to some extent that he really can be a one-trick-pony. So far, of his fiction, I've got Fight Club, Choke, Survivor and Lullaby under my belt. Am I missing something, or are the other few novels I have left just more of the same? Again, don't get me wrong, I enjoy it; but if I'm going to devote some time to reading a book, there are many others waiting that offer things I haven't read. All of his protagonists have some sort of God/messiah complex, all of them have crazy fucked up childhoods, all of them are extremely quirky and have some sort of obsession/addiction. While there is some variety left there, I would love to see him attack the problem from an entirely different angle.

Those looking for something different from Palahniuk should check out Stranger Than Fiction. He's got some excellent non-fiction in there.

I think you have to identify with the characters... half the time it's like i'm reading an alternate version of my life... and then sometimes he mindfucks you.. and your like OMG braingasm... Read Rant... awesome awesome book. And I thought Survivor was amazing ;O

Give Stranger than Fiction a try, completely different.
Rant is more of the same, but in a different style than usual.

Palahniuk is amazing the fight club movie while really awesome was nothing in comparison to the book. Lookin forward to seein Choke.

I can't wait to get Pygmy once it comes out. Sounds pretty crazy

I just started reading Rant, and I have Snuff after that.
