Haunted

I decided to start reading Palahniuk with the book that has reportedly made over 60 people faint. I can only say that this choice was so right. Gritty and insightful, Palahniuk explores the histories and circumstances of seventeen people "trapped" by their own sense of self-importance and attachment to suffering. A greusome satire of modern obsession with the concept of reality, this collection of backstory, macabre short narative and poetry has restored my faith in the existence of intelligent literature.

I first read this play after I auditioned for it, and I fell in love with it. What an amazing sense of character, the sense of...youth. That's what it's about, isn't it? There's such a connection, everyone, I assume, can relate. It's just an amazing read.
