“It’s hard to forget pain, but even harder to remember sweetness. We have no scars to show for happiness. We learn so little from peace.”

“It’s hard to forget pain, but it’s even harder to remember sweetness.”

“You can repeat the same miracles over and over as long as no one remembers the last time”

Nessuno sta bene in questo libro (commento applicabile a tutta la bibliografia di Palahniuk)

“Poi, quando resta di nuovo sola, la signora Misty Marie Wilmot, quando nessuno la vede, tua moglie, si alza sulle punte dei piedi e tende le labbra verso il retro della porta. Le sue dita si allargano su anni e antenati. Con la scatola di colori defunti ai suoi piedi, bacia il punto sporco sotto il tuo nome dove una volta dovevano esserci le tue labbra.”

“What you don’t understand, you can make mean anything”

After a week of abstinence, I bought this book coming back from a lecture. Probably an eye-roll worthy opinion to avid readers, but I love Palahniuk’s style. Maybe it’s the nihilism. Or the way he just grips your attention. Idk, but I’m excited to dig into this, and then probably Survivor then Rant (at my local bookstore). Maybe even Fight Club, but I’ve seen the movie three times so it’s not a priority.
