The goal of novelist Chuck Palahniuk is to disturb. The transgress author, who takes pride in his disturbing verbs, specializes in exposing the most horrifying and repulsive aspects of human nature so that the reader can gradually let go of their worries and, ideally, move towards the light.
Palahniuk has delighted in the aggressive the odd, and the insane typically served up with a heavy serving of black humor since his breakthrough book Fight Club. His multi-decade body of work comprises 2 adult coloring books, 3 non-fiction books, 19 novels, and short story collections, many of which feature disturbing and dangerous characters.
