Chuck Palahniuk: "I don't want to make domesticated books that are easy to take to the movies" "I only tell stories that are too extreme for film, television or streaming" "Only in porn do the spoken parts at the beginning work" "My characters never scam for money, since Fight Club their motivation is the need for emotional support. They present a false identity to be loved and in the process they discover that the world is already just as false as they are"
