Chuck Palahniuk - "Adjustment Day"

From 2018 (? might be 2019) but scarily preniscient.

People (not the ones in power) kill all the ones in power. Then "redistribute" everyone according to the book by Talbott; blacks in south America, whites in North America, gays in California.  It describes a scarily "plausible" explanation.

 

 

 

Chuck Palahniuk - "Tell-All"

I don't understand this. I have read 15 pages and the bold name-dropping irritates me. I do not see its purpose, its style- or storytelling merits.

Choke

Interesting film. Not extremely good, but fun enough.

Fun to watch after reading some of Chuck Palahniuk's essays. You can see the hidden guns, the mind-method vs heart method.

It's a good example of one way of story telling.

Chuck Palahniuk - "Lullaby"

Small and intriguing book, in which the existence of a "culling song", a song to be read (sung) to dying elders, soldiers, young infants when no food was around, to give them peace, of mind, body and life.

Main character Streator and Helen Hoover Boyle become a dark Bonnie & Clyde, intent on destroying the book, yet wishing for more. He couldn't stop.

Loved the story, and the characters. He repeats a lot, it made me think of "Slaughterhouse 5" (poo-tee-weet?)
