Chuck Palahniuk, Parodist - [AUDIOBOOK]
mp3 | 965.49 MB | Author: David McCracken | Year: 2016
Description :
Chuck Palahniuk, America's premier transgressive novelist, enjoys a tremendous readership. Yet he has not necessarily been embraced by critics or academics. His prose is considered vulgar by some, but his body of work addresses a core motivation of 21st-century life: individual self-empowerment. Palahniuk writes about what it means to be on the outside looking in, revising familiar narratives for a contemporary audience to get at the heart of the human condition-everyone wants a chance to win his or her fair share, no matter the cost.
In Haunted, Snuff, Pygmy, Tell-All, Damned and Invisible Monsters Remix, he confronts marginalization and disenfranchisement through parodies of various works-The Decameron, The Inferno, Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret, The Elephant Man-as well as Hollywood history, 1970s karate films and the porn industry. This comprehensive study of six novels refutes criticism that Palahniuk's goals are to shock and sensationalize.
