dgw reviewed Survivor by Chuck Palahniuk
Review of 'Survivor' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Picking up this book when I did was a mistake; it made me stay up way too late the night before a big rehearsal. But reading it was the anti-mistake. I read it in two sittings, and that only because I had to break off the first to get some sleep before that rehearsal.
Like others have mentioned, the characters feel somewhat flat, but the book isn't really about character development but our society. The theme spoke to me. Somehow, this theme should be distributed through the world consciousness; a lot of issues Palahniuk brought up a decade ago are still unresolved, or worse than they were.
