Let me first start off by saying this: Chuck, my dear sir, you don’t need to worry about any of us talking about fight club because half the time we’re sat there saying “what the actual fuck just happened”. Another thing I want to talk about is how this book falls into a very niche category, among which American psycho and A Clockwork Orange also come to mind, which I think should colloquially be known as “Satirical criticism of society written by men frequently misunderstood by men”

First rule of Fight Club is you don’t talk about Fight Club! So I won’t 🤫… (loved it though, made me chuckle a lot)
