Chuck Palahniuk Book Club - July 2011
July 2011's Chuck Palahniuk Book Club choice is Tobacco-Stained Mountain Goat by Andrez Bergen. Think sci-fi noir with a heavy dose of humor. Andrez will be taking part in the discussion - and big thanks to these cool cats.
Cut to Melbourne, Australia–the most glamorous city in the world. It also happens to be the only one left standing, but nevermind that, we’re there now and I’d like you to meet your narrator, a certain Floyd Maquina, a likable chap with one hell of a story to share. See, the powers that be are knuckling down on the Deviant menace that plagues the city, and our boy Floyd’s unknowingly got himself in the thick of it. Cue guns, intrigue, kidnappings, conspiracy and all sorts of general mayhem that make for cracking good headlines.
Does Floyd stop the bad guys? Does he get the girl? Does he make Humphrey Bogart proud? Grab some popcorn and read on.
