Written in stolen moments under truck chassis and on park benches to a soundtrack of The Downward Spiral and Pablo Honey, Fight Club came into existence. The adaptation of Fight Club was a flop at the box office, but achieved cult status on DVD. The film’s popularity drove sales of the novel. Chuck put out two novels in 1999, Survivor and Invisible Monsters. Choke, published in 2001, became Chuck’s first New York Times bestseller. Chuck’s work has always been infused with personal experience, and his next novel, Lullaby, was no exception. Chuck credits writing Lullaby with helping him cope with the tragic death of his father. Diary and the non-fiction guide to Portland, Fugitives and Refugees, were released in 2003. While on the road in support of Diary, Chuck began reading a short story entitled 'Guts,' which would eventually become part of the novel Haunted.
In the years that followed, he continued to write, publishing the bestselling Rant, Snuff, Pygmy, Tell-All, a 'remix' of Invisible Monsters, Damned, and most recently, Doomed.
Chuck also enjoys giving back to his fans, and teaching the art of storytelling has been an important part of that. In 2004, Chuck began submitting essays to ChuckPalahniuk.net on the craft of writing. These were 'How To' pieces, straight out of Chuck's personal bag of tricks, based on the tenants of minimalism he learned from Tom Spanbauer. Every month, a “Homework Assignment” would accompany the lesson, so Workshop members could apply what they had learned. (all 36 of these essays can currently be found on The Cult's sister-site, LitReactor.com).
Then, in 2009, Chuck increased his involvement by committing to read and review a selection of fan-written stories each month. The best stories are currently set to be published in Burnt Tongues, a forthcoming anthology, with an introduction written by Chuck himself.
His next novel, Beautiful You, is due out in October 2014.

评分看到这个作家在内地出版第二本书,想到自己以前也给《搏击俱乐部》写过文章,于是把旧文翻出来,瞧瞧。 搏击俱乐部的首要规则是你不能谈起搏击俱乐部。 搏击俱乐部的规则之二是你不能谈起搏击俱乐部。 作家查克•帕拉纽克在《搏击俱乐部》再版时不无得意地列举了这本书...
评分其实《搏击俱乐部》要讲的,压根就不是什么精神分裂之类的烂事。 书要比电影好,这是我的第一感觉。电影让我的眼球疲于追逐动态的画面,却看不到太多背后的东西。而躺在床上,合起书本,你有一整个宇宙那么多的事情可以思考。 经济学的第一堂课:你是稀缺性的...

Chuck Palahniuk showed himself to be his generation’s most visionary satirist in this, his first book. Fight Club’s estranged narrator leaves his lackluster job when he comes under the thrall of Tyler Durden, an enigmatic young man who holds secret after-hours boxing matches in the basement of bars. There, two men fight "as long as they have to." This is a gloriously original work that exposes the darkness at the core of our modern world.
better than the movie
评分不知道是不是这个版本总之胡乱标记下。。。好像是第一本完整看完的英文书,电影更带劲儿,小说逻辑更完整
评分destroy and exist
评分destroy and exist
评分小说和电影还是有很大不同的,电影里结局圆满,而小说中留下了悬疑。很棒
