Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk. An amazing piece of literature from a definite voice in the literary world. I actually have two copies of this, my old copy that's been read many times and my autographed copy I won last year when Chuck came to do an event in Winnipeg. It was quite an event, as Chuck actually left the stage in anger after people were shouting after he asked them not to. I had just won my Easter basket of goodies for asking a question. (I asked if he had ever thought of writing for kids...he joked about "getting a piece of that Harry Potter money.") He came back out and finished the show though. It was funny as a whole audience got the treatment that I've given to my students...the old "whole class suffers as a result of one wiseass" bit...Good times.
