Resumen del editor:

Un libro irreverente, sorprendente y divertido. "Imaginación brutal, vigor anárquico... Una novela cruda y vital." The New York Times Victor Mancini, un estudiante de medicina fracasado, ha diseñado un complejo plan para cubrir los gastos de la atención médica de su madre. Fingir que se asfixia con un pedazo de comida en un restaurante para que la persona que acuda a "salvarlo" se sienta responsable de él durante el resto de su vida. Y le pase un cheque. Si se practica en varios centenares de restaurantes, la lluvia de dinero está garantizada. Entre una actuación y otra en los restaurantes, Victor también se gana la vida representando el papel de un campesino miserable en un parque temático dedicado a la América colonial del siglo XVIII, acude a un grupo de terapia para adictos al sexo (la mejor manera de conocer mujeres) y visita a su madre, cuya vena anárquica hizo de la infancia de Victor una auténtica locura. Un antihéroe en tiempos de insania, y una novela que confirma a Palahniuk, autor de El club de la lucha, como una de las voces más frescas y desopilantes de la narrativa norteamericana.

Typicial Palahniuk...

Amusing isn't the right word, but it's the first word that comes to mind. The tale of a sex addict con artist whose daytime job is in a Colonial-period theme park and whose night job is choking in restaurants to pay for his mother's nursing home care. In typical Palahniuk style, it's at turns disturbing, insightful, interesting, funny and off-putting, but always worth reading.

Am I the only one who felt this way?

first off, i actually did enjoy this book. It was extremely entertaining and the plot(s) were very interesting. Yet, it lacked something. A few days after finishing it, i discussed it with a few friends. thats when i realized what i didnt like about it. first, there wasnt really much of a climax and two, i thought that the ending could have been so much better. it really had one of the lamest endings ive ever read. i really dont see why book stores are advertizing the hell out of this book. yes, chuck is an amazing writer and his books are filled with humor, strange, quirky factsand interesting plots, but this book just wasnt what it was built up to be i guess

The most clever Palahniuk Novel Ever?

Let me start off by saying that chuck palahniuk is a genius. This novel may be the best novel he has/will ever write. It's clever, sick, funny, and mysterious all at the same time. Greatness isn't the right word, but it's the first thing that comes to my mind.
