Charles Michael « Chuck » Palahniuk [tʃʌk ˈpɔːlənɪk], né le 21 février 1962 à Pasco dans l'État de Washington, est un romancier satirique américain et un journaliste indépendant. Après des études de journalisme qui ne lui permettent pas de vivre de ce métier, il devient mécanicien pendant 10 ans. Il écrit à cette époque Monstres Invisibles qui est refusé par les éditeurs en raison de son contenu trop provocant. Il entreprend alors l'écriture de Fight Club qui rencontre un succès notable et est porté à l'écran en 1999 par David Fincher. Il est assimilé au mouvement dit d'anticipation sociale. Wikipedia

Chuck Palahniuk citations célèbres

“Personne ne veut reconnaître que nous sommes des drogués de musique. Ce n'est tout bonnement pas possible. Personne n'est drogué de musique, de télévision, de radio. Simplement, il nous en faut plus et plus, nous en avons besoin, plus de chaines, un écran plus grand, plus de volume. Nous ne supportons pas de nous en passer, mais, non personne n'est drogué.
Nous pourrions l'éteindre dès que nous le voudrions.”

Chuck Palahniuk

“Et puis, quand ils sont épuisés, les hommes et les femmes vont à l'église.
Et ils se marient.
Être fatigué n'est pas la même chose qu'être riche, mais la plupart du temps c'est assez proche.”

Chuck Palahniuk

Then, when they're exhausted, the men and woman go to church.
And they get married.
Being tired isn't the same as being rich, but most times it's close enough.

Cette phrase est tirée de la post-face de l'édition 2006 de Fight Club et non du roman lui-même.
Fight Club

“Tu as une classe entière de jeunes hommes et femmes forts et solides, et ils veulent donner leur vie pour quelque chose. La publicité les fait tous courir après des voitures et des vêtements dont ils n'ont pas besoin. Ils travaillent dans des métiers qu'ils haïssent, par générations entières, uniquement pour pouvoir acheter ce dont ils n'ont pas
vraiment besoin. Nous n'avons pas de grande guerre dans notre génération, ni de grande dépression, mais si, pourtant,
nous avons bien une grande guerre de l'esprit. Nous avons une grande révolution contre la culture. La grande dépression, c'est nos existences.
Nous avons une grande dépression spirituelle.”
