In  his first collection of nonfiction, Chuck Palahniuk brings us into this world, and  gives us a glimpse of what inspires his fiction.</p><p></p><p>At the Rock Creek Lodge Testicle  Festival in Missoula, Montana, average people perform public sex acts on an outdoor  stage. In a mansion once occupied by The Rolling Stones, Marilyn Manson reads his  own Tarot cards and talks sweetly to his beautiful actress girlfriend. Across the  country, men build their own full-size castles and rocketships that will send them  into space. Palahniuk himself experiments with steroids, works on an assembly line  by day and as a hospice volunteer by night, and experiences the brutal murder of  his father by a white supremacist. With this new direction, Chuck Palahniuk has proven  he can do anything.<br><br><b>BONUS: </b>This ebook edition includes an excerpt from Chuck Palahniuk's <i>Doomed.</i> </p></br></br>
