Book excerpt: This collection examines how Chuck Palahniuk pushes through a variety of boundaries to shape fiction and to interrogate American cultures in powerful and important ways. His innovative stylistic accomplishments and notoriously disturbing subject matters invite close analysis, and these new essays insightfully discuss Palahniuk's texts, contexts, contributions, and controversies.
