Palahniuk At Press Club Saw Chuck Palahniuk tonight at the National Press Club. He read an excellent short story called Guts, a three-part story of the risks of weird masturbation. He also remarked that some of his writing was intended to challenge the idea that individuals will find hapiness in money. Despite the darkness of the topics he covered, Palahniuk's talk was uplifting. He clearly has a love for life. He didn't describe his personal life in detail--he only said that he was happily married, and that he lives somewhere where there is no broadband. Apparently, like six people fainted during the reading of that story at the Union Square Barnes & Noble in NYC. Posted by: at September 16, 2003 07:48 AMYeah, no one fainted at the DC reading. But it was a great story, and Palahniuk delivered it in a compelling fashion. Posted by: at September 16, 2003 09:24 AMWhy the hell would someone faint? Posted by: at September 16, 2003 06:22 PMWell it was an intense story. Basically three masturbation horror stories. One involved parental discovery of masturbation w/ anal stimulation. Another involved enhancing orgasms by inserting objects into the penis. The last involved masturbation and butt sucking. Posted by: at September 16, 2003 10:14 PMPost a comment
