Fight Club

Chuck Palahniuk showed himself to be his generation`s most visionary satirist in this, his first book. 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 after-hours boxing matches in the basements of bars. There, two men fight "as long as they have to." This is a gloriously original work that exposes the darkness at the core of our modern world.
