In 'Knock, Knock', a son hopes to tell one last off-colour joke to his dying father , while in 'Tunnel of Love', a massage therapist runs the curious practice of providing 'relief' to dying clients. And in 'Excursion', Fight Club fans will be thrilled to find a side of Tyler Durden never seen before.

Review:
"Twenty-one stories and a novella to disturb and delight." (Bookseller)
"Looking back at Palahniuk’s body of work it seems shocking readers comes naturally to him; if that is what you’re looking for, you won’t be disappointed here. He clearly relishes pushing boundaries, playing with the absurd and the grotesque as a way to hold up a mirror to society." (Claire Inman Curious Animal Magazine)
"Palahniuk is in sublime, caustic form; his story subjects even more wickedly bold." (Tanya Sweeney Independent)
"Savage, disturbing and frequently hilarious, this is writing at its boldest." (Grazia)
"A rough but enjoyable ride." (Chris Kirkham Shortlist)
