by Chuck Palahniuk
Victor Mancini, a medical-school dropout, is an antihero for our deranged times. Needing to pay elder care for his mother, Victor has devised an ingenious scam: he pretends to choke on pieces of food while dining in upscale restaurants. He then allows himself to be “saved” by fellow patrons who, feeling responsible for Victor’s life, go on to send checks to support him. When he’s not pulling this stunt, Victor cruises sexual addiction recovery workshops for action, visits his addled mom, and spends his days working at a colonial theme park. His creator, Chuck Palahniuk, is the visionary we need and the satirist we deserve. 304 pages Publisher : Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group Date Published : July 30, 2002 7 other members have this in Catalog![]() electricgirl owns this book ![]() eraavila owns this book ![]() airick has read this book ![]() LilMissArtemis has read this book ![]() kaatreyess has read this book ![]() summer has read this book ![]() aecht has read this book Talk about thisRe: Latest book you have finished
