Taking a break from Neuromancer with a short and easily legible Russian classic...

I read the book last year, and it was the best, wittiest dialogue I had ever heard. So as it based on a play, I purchased the play last week. I started it yesterday, still hilarious.

Rereading this:



Bought it for my buddy for Christmas. He use to have a copy before he lent to someone and never got it back. He also has a PDF version on his computer, but that doesn't work to well for looking up rules during gameplay.

Right now, I'm reading Fight Club, because I loved the movie, and I finally got around to getting the book to see how it compared.

Chuck Palahnuik is a great author. I never read Fight Club, but I've read Lullaby, Invisible Monsters, Diary, Haunted and Choke. All really good reads. Choke didn't really live up to the book as a movie, in my opinion.

By the way. MY mom just enlightened me to the factoid that the lead vampire in Twilight is supposed to be a fucking vegetarian??! Fuckin' kids will buy anything.

You know, I grew tired of his writing style after a few chapters and can't seem to get back into it. Maybe it's just me.

I read Fight Club, Survivor and Snuff. Personally Fight Club is by far my favorite. He sure has very repetitive style that he kind of respect in all his books (well the ones I already read, but it seems like he's doing the same kind of thing in all his novels). I have to say tho, that this writing style perfectly works in FC.

I think I'll only read the other books I own by him, but I don't think I'll purchase any others. As for his style, in few words: The same reply recurs slightly changed every 3 pages. The narrator is the lead character talking in the first person. The character usually knows a lot of cool stuff that he keeps noting, like some kind of life trivias, but each book its subject.

Fight Club was great for this, these kind of replies added tension to the book. In the others i just liked the cool info I'm reading, nothing else, nothing adding to the story. Snuff on the other hand, didn't have the main character as narrator, he followed a very different approach in that one. However, it has got the weakest story.

Oooh what is this about in more detail? I hear of it often and it always catches my eye because the name Virginia Woolf is in the title... I always wondered what it was all about.
