Stranger Than Fiction

"Full of wonderful moments. . . Palahniuk's voice is so distinctive and intimate--he writes as though he is recounting a great story to a close friend." --Los Angeles Times

"Step into Palahniuk's dark worldview and watch for what crawls out. These stories are true to him and no one else." --The Oregonian

One of the oddest and most oddly compelling collections to come along for some time. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

In Chuck Palahniuk s world, the ride is fast, often disturbing, and there is never any holding back. The New Orleans Times-Picayune

Eccentric, idiosyncratic, and often entertaining. The Onion

"Priceless grace notes from an exceptionally droll and sharp-eyed observer." --The New York Times

Rarely does a collection of essays continually resonate with a main theme and accumulate a weight that would lead you to call it a great book. . . . This is a pretty great book. The Seattle Times

"The book's lurid appeal rests largely on being let in on Palahniuk's secrets, the raw material for much of his fiction. . . . Acts that give spice to his novels are made more menacing when encountered in the real world." --Black Book
