The fight will last as long as it must.

If you can wake up in different places at different times, why not wake up one day as someone else? That’s the truth the unnamed protagonist of this story comes to realize.

To achieve what he desires and bring new meaning to his sleepless reality, he is led by a rebel named Tyler Durden. Tyler introduces him to a place called Fight Club. And the first rule of Fight Club is — you do not talk about Fight Club.

Here gather those trapped in the monotony of everyday life, who fight to feel like men again. Those who choose: hell or nothing. Men who, beyond pain, beyond ethics, on the edge of madness, seek wild, primal freedom. But the first step toward that freedom is not the fight — it is death.

Chuck Palahniuk is known as a “shock writer.” A descendant of a Ukrainian immigrant, he began his literary career at a mature age, already knowing what he wanted to say. His books have long transcended fiction and become a countercultural phenomenon. Palahniuk’s style — sharp, uncompromising, provocative — is a manifesto of Generation X. His works have won the Pacific Northwest Booksellers Association Award and the Oregon Book Award, and have been nominated multiple times for the Bram Stoker Award.
