Critics Review

“Sheer, anarchic fierceness of imagination … [A] raw and vital book.” –The New York Times “Few contemporary writers mix the outrageous and the hilarious with greater zest… . Chuck Palahniuk’s splenetic, anarchic glee makes him a worthy heir to Ken Kesey.” —Newsday“Palahniuk displays a Swiftian gift for satire, as well as a knack for crafting mesmerizing sentences.” –San Francisco Examiner“Puts a bleakly humorous spin on self-help, addiction recovery, and childhood trauma … [F]unny mantra-like prose plows toward the mayhem it portends from the get-go.” –The Village Voice
