It reveals how far things have already moved beyond his control.'Hypnotic, pitiless and told brilliantly' Bret Easton Ellis'Like a noxious Doug Coupland, Palahniuk charts new-felt and totally contemporary categories of despair' Ali Smith, GuardianVINTAGE CLASSICS' AMERICAN GOTHIC SERIESSpine-tingling, mind-altering and deliciously atmospheric, journey into the dark side of America with nine of its most uncanny classics.
