Make Something Up
By Chuck PalahniukPublisher Description
Twenty one stories and one novella from Chuck Palahniuk, literature's favorite transgressive author, Make Something Up is a compilation that disturbs and delights in equal measure. In "Expedition," fans will be thrilled to find to see a side of Tyler Durden never seen before in a precursor story to Fight Club. And in other stories, the absurdity of both life and death are on full display; in "Zombies," the best and brightest of a high school prep school become tragically addicted to the latest drug craze: electric shocks from cardiac defibrillators. In "Knock, Knock," a son hopes to tell one last off-color joke to a father in his final moments, while in "Tunnel of Love," a massage therapist runs the curious practice of providing 'relief' to dying clients. Funny, caustic, bizarre, poignant; these stories represent everything readers have come

““In order to know virtue we must first acquaint ourselves with vice.”
this was so morbid & grotesque & also curiosity inducing! other than some stories just being gross for the sake of being gross, every single story here was something i’ve never come across before.
even if the stories themselves are bad (which a lot of them are), the concepts do pique my interest.
did i lose brain cells reading this? many. would i read this again? FUCKING NO. did i enjoy reading it? also no. but it kept my attention & put me in really weird WACKY scenarios.
knock knock: 1.5/5 slurs :/
eleanor: 2.5/5 i’m not so sure abt this
how monkey got married, bought a house, and found happiness in orlando: 3/5 what
zombies: 2/5 lmfao WGAT this could’ve been so good”
