Johnny Got his Gun by Dalton Trumbo
might be my favorite book ever.
Anyone who likes Chuck Palahniuk should immediately go find anything they can by Philip Wylie. He doesn't get as gruesome but his style is a definite precursor to Palahniuk. I think he was writing from the 30's to the 60's. Mad man.

I loved it. It's the funniest and saddest damn thing I think I've ever read. Super quick read, too.

Tragic lack of pointing out other races' inferiority for you?

I would strongly recommend Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy to anyone who is into apocalyptic suffering.

Bleak and obscene literature for a dismal, snowed in day.

I enjoyed reading the Answer Me! issues more than both of his books. Recently I've been reading 'Teenage Wasteland' by Donna Gaines, whom I found out about through Jim Goad. It's pretty interesting and based on the shitty underside of white teen life in the suburbs during the early 90's. Though the teens are seemly into crap musically, she makes mention of Big Black and Test Dept. which is enough for me
Next on the must read list: Standing in Two Circles.

How about "I hope they serve beer in hell", it wasn't a literary masterpiece... like all the starwars books i read, but it was funny as hell.
