A man who struggles with insomnia meets a colorful extremist, and they create a secret organization together.

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.

November 13, 2014 Edited by Brad The PDF of this Adobe Digital edition of Fight Club, when opened in the Aldiko reader app for Android, is misssing the first 11 pages of the text of this book. My guess is it is likely to appear that when in other readers as well, since the rest of the PDF displays correctly in said app. I have changed not altered this wiki or the file in anyway, but I haven't really seen anywhere else to alert site administrators of the corrupted file, so I am leaving this note here for lack due to my ignorance of anyplace else to report the flaw.
