Comments on: why chuck palahniuk is cooler than you http://www.urbanmonarch.com/why-chuck-palahniuk-is-cooler-than-you/ Advice for a generation of men raised by women Sat, 11 Oct 2008 00:10:10 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 By: goat http://www.urbanmonarch.com/why-chuck-palahniuk-is-cooler-than-you/#comment-32782 goat Tue, 19 Jun 2007 13:37:32 +0000 http://www.urbanmonarch.com/why-chuck-palahniuk-is-cooler-than-you/#comment-32782 rant is interesting. it felt like a blend of palahniuk's past works. in that there were elements quite heavy with the feel of things from choke, or fight club. but the other half of the story felt like lullaby or diary. also the way it was written it works perfectly as an audio book, surprisingly so. i'm curious to see how it would compare to the dead tree version, but the audio was nearly hypnotiq on the long drive i just took. rant is interesting. it felt like a blend of palahniuk’s past works. in that there were elements quite heavy with the feel of things from choke, or fight club. but the other half of the story felt like lullaby or diary. also the way it was written it works perfectly as an audio book, surprisingly so. i’m curious to see how it would compare to the dead tree version, but the audio was nearly hypnotiq on the long drive i just took.

Diary is the one book I haven't been able to finish! In like 3 years! Maybe I'll give it another go. Probably though I'll just move on. Alexander and Jillian; thanks for the advice.

Then Lullaby and then Diary. Haven't read Haunted but maybe that can be our book club book! See you guys tomorrow. I highly recommend Invisible Monsters first. Then Lullaby and then Diary.

I found out a week or so ago, that Choke is going into production as a movie on June 18th. http://www.aintitcool.com/node/32492 As far as a Lullaby goes (and Diary), it is a much tamer Chuck. They are good stories, but not nearly as dark and as graphic as Choke and Fight Club. My next recommendation would be Invisible Monsters or Haunted, if you haven't read them yet.
