β¦ Synopsis
The author ofFight Clubtakes America beyond our darkest dreams in this timely satire.
People pass the word only to those they trust most: Adjustment Day is coming. Theyβve been reading a mysterious book and memorizing its directives. They are ready for the reckoning.
Adjustment Day, the authorβs first novel in four years, is an ingeniously comic work in which Chuck Palahniuk does what he does best: skewer the absurdities in our society. Smug, geriatric politicians bring the nation to the brink of a third world war in an effort to control the burgeoning population of young males; working-class men dream of burying the elites; and professors propound theories that offer students only the bleakest future.
WhenAdjustment Dayarrives, it fearlessly makes real the logical conclusion of every separatist fantasy, alternative fact, and conspiracy theory lurking in the American psyche.
