Make up something

In this collection of short stories, Chuck Palahniuk does what he does best – delights and shocks the reader, mixing emotions as he pleases. We meet here a former stripper, an elderly party animal, an enthusiastic virologist, a desperate cancer patient, a schoolboy obsessed with sex – dozens of characters, at once grotesque and realistic, as if generated by the sick imagination of the unsuccessful writers of Palahniuk's novel "Ghosts".
