No matter where the conflict takes place, an entire generation of young men are facing certain death. The upcoming war will be in North Africa, but it might as well be Iraq or Afghanistan or Korea. The catalyst for Adjustment Day is the reinstatement of the draft. It’s Palahniuk, the novel has graphic descriptions of sex, death, birth, and all the stages of bodily disease and decay, of course I’m going to fucking swear. It’s the exact opposite of a popularity contest, and when Adjustment Day comes it’s going to determine who will lead America into a bright, perfect future and who…won’t.Ĭontent warning for coarse language. Some people are obsessed with the list most people think it’s a joke.
The list appears online, and anyone can add a name or vote for names that are already there. The story starts with a book, one with a remarkably seductive message, and with a list of names. I gotta say, I thought about that advice more than once while reading this.
Which he did so, with his unique combination of the ridiculous and the unsettling: “Tell yourself this is only a book!”
Hoard power and the government rots.Ĭhuck Palahniuk was one of the guests at this year’s NC Comicon: Bull City, so I was able to buy a copy of his latest novel Adjustment Day for him to sign.
