Fight Club
<p><b>'Hypnotic, pitiless and told brilliantly' Bret Easton Ellis</b><br> <br> <b>Every weekend, in basements and parking lots across America, young men with good white-collar jobs and absent fathers take off their shoes and shirts and fight each other.</b><br> <br> Then they go back to those jobs with blackened eyes and loosened teeth and the sense that they can handle anything. Fight Club is the invention of Tyler Durden, projectionist, waiter and dark, anarchic genius. And it's only the beginning of his plans for revenge on a world where cancer support groups have the corner on human warmth.<br> <br> <b>Read the subversive, savagely funny novel that defined a generation.</b></p>
