“SURVIVOR”“Survivor” is Chuck’s second book published (1999). It’s not as crude as “Choke” and not as subversive as “Fight Club.” It has the same dark humor that I openly laughed out loud at; thankfully when you are reading, no one knows exactly what you find so amusing. Recently it was announced that “Survivor” is being adapted by Jim Uhls (screenwriter of Fight Club) into a television show. I believe the plot and back story are enough to keep this show afloat for several seasons. I will try to keep my expectations low, to avoid being disappointed.The novel is about Tender Branson, a member of the “Creedish Church.” Only firstborn sons and their wives get to stay in the Creedish community; the rest are sent out to work in the “outside world” as servants, to send their earnings back to the church. Tender spends his time scrubbing the home of employers who seek his advice on etiquette but only ever interact with him via speaker phone.  (“What are they serving for dinner?  Lobster!  How are we supposed to handle that?!”)Following a mass suicide of the Creedish Church community and remaining members in the “outside world,” Tender becomes the sole survivor.  A smarmy agent develops Tender into a sacrosanct mega superstar mahatma. (“I told the agent I already knew my childhood.  Over the phone he said, “This version’s better.”)  “Survivor” is a satirical jab at instant celebrity and religion, blended together with helpful cleaning tips, a history of artificial flowers and the hint of love story.If that isn’t enough plot to entice you to read the book, I am sorry.  Someone at Wiki practically re-wrote the book on their site, so I’m doing my best not to reveal too much. Each time I read the book I have found new things to love. All of the people I have recommended this book to, loved it and went on to read more novels by Chuck.Favorite Quote: “You’ve never seen a crucifix with a Jesus who wasn’t almost naked.  You’ve never seen a fat Jesus, or a Jesus with body hair. Every crucifix you’ve ever seen, the Jesus could be shirtless and modeling designer jeans or men’s cologne.”Or:“Amphetamines are the most American drug.  You get so much done.  You look terrific, and your middle name is Accomplishment.”

    Terrific Novel
  

*by M***N on Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2018*

Terrific novel. You can see the influence of Raymond Carver, Hemmingway—really any minimalist writer—as well as Brett Easton Ellis, Thomas Pynchon—and other satirists of pop-culture, celebrity, mass media, and moral decline. I’ve read a few of Palahnuik’s works—and this was my favorite. Some of the line-by-line writing didn’t exactly blow me away—but where this novel shines is in terms of innovation and plot mechanics. The idea of a novel being the recording of a black box on a plane on a suicide mission, the way the chapters and pages move in descending order towards the literal and existential end, and the wild and yet plausible enough series of encounters that befall the last remaining member of The Creedish Death Cult is almost certain to engross the reader. What makes this book so great, above all, is it’s a story you can’t predict—a mad rollercoaster with a pulse—a satire with heart—in short—a work of art. Not sure if anyone is making this into a movie—but it really is a very compelling story that has a great deal to say about the current socio-political moment.

    Love this author-great book!
  

*by K***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2017*

This is a really great book, and interestingly weird in a "I can't put this down even though I have work in 3 hours" way. I love this author, he has super random and interesting ideas, and his stories are filled with great, issue-riddled characters. This particular book, Surviver, stars the last remaining member of a Creedish cult. His name is Tender, and he begins the book by informing the reader that he has just hijacked a plane and will be reciting his life story into the black box, to ensure that it survives an impending crash into the Australian Outback. It then takes you back in time to the beginning. Through a newspaper typo, he has acquired a suicide hotline, through which he indirectly meets a prophetic dreamer. They start a strange adventure together after someone begins offing the last remaining cult survivers. Tender suspects it to be his estranged twin brother. Definitely a fun read & his books are always worth reading, especially if  you appreciate dark humor. Chuck Palahniuk is hilarious and creative; definitely give him a try.
