Reviews
Praise for Chuck Palahniuk: "Palahniuk is one of the freshest, most intriguing voices to appear in a long time. He rearranges Vonnegut's sly humor, DeLillo's mordant social analysis, and Pynchon's antic surrealism (or is it R. Crumb's?) into a gleaming puzzle palace all his own." --Newsday "Palahniuk displays a Swiftian gift for satire, as well as a knack for crafting mesmerizing sentences that loom with stark, prickly prose and repetitive rhythms." --San Francisco Examiner "Even I can't write this well." --Thom Jones "Palahniuk's language is urgent and tense, touched with psychopathic brilliance, his images dead-on accurate....[He] is an author who makes full use of the alchemical powers of fiction to synthesize a universe that mirrors our own fiction as a way of illuminating the world without obliterating its complexity." --L.A. Weekly "Maybe our generation has found its Don DeLillo." --Bret Easton Ellis

Synopsis
From the author of the international sensationFight Club,a powerful (and hilarious) novel about love and strife between mothers and sons, the addictive power of sex, the terrors of aging, the ugly truth about historical theme parks, and much else... Fight Club, Chuck Palahniuk's controversial and blazingly original debut novel, introduced a fresh and even renegade talent to American fiction, one who has retooled the classic black humor of Terry Southern and Kurt Vonnegut for the lunacy of the millennial age. In his new novel,Choke,he gives readers a vision of life and love and sex and mortality that is both chillingly brilliant and teeth-rattlingly funny. Victor Mancini, a dropout from medical school, has devised a complicated scam to pay for his mother's elder care: Pretend to be choking on a piece of food in a restaurant and the person who "saves you" will feel responsible for the rest of his life. Multiply that a couple of hundred times and you generate a healthy flow of checks, week in, week out. Between fake choking gigs, Victor works at Colonial Dunsboro with a motley group of losers and stoners trapped in 1734, cruises sex addiction groups for action ("You put twenty sexaholics around a table night after night and don't be surprised."), and visits his mother, whose anarchic streak made his childhood a mad whirl and whose Alzheimer's disease now hides what may be the startling truth about his (possibly divine?) parentage. An antihero for our deranging times, Victor's whole existence is a struggle to wrest an identity from overwhelming forces. His creator, Chuck Palahniuk, is the visionary we need and the satirist we deserve.

My order was packaged with care and arrived in like new condition! It was just as described in the listing. The seller wasted no time in updating me with tracking information and shipped out.

Six books in the shipping sleeve was too many. The sleeve split and I could easily grab books out of it. Thank goodness none were lost or damaged. I would suggest larger envelopes for bigger orders, especially since the seller offers deals for buy more save more. Great price point. All books in good condition.

It was disappointing to receive the book in a plastic bag, instead of a cardboard-type container. The book ended up having dings in it as a result. We accepted the book as is and didn't contact the seller. However, going forward, anyone selling books should be using packaging that is best suited for shipping books as shipping companies aren't careful & could care less what's inside of the package.
