Last semester it was Invisible Monsters, and if I remember right, it was my second run through the book. This week it's Lullaby, a little less sexually graphic, but brutal when it comes to a bitter vegetarian ranting about the ways animals are mistreated. I'd recite a couple lines, but no. It's a little too gross for me at this post-breakfast time.
However, I'd greatly encourage the reading of Chuck Palahniuk's work. He's most famous for writing Fight Club (and apparently Choke, which I've never heard of), though that's my least favourite novel of his. But his writing is fantastically addictive, and the stories are complicated twisted up tales, and you only ever get the beginning after reading the ending.
So perhaps next time you find yourself in a library, do a quick search for one of his books, and take it out for a test-drive.
I think you, whoever you are, will enjoy.
