Like many of Palaniuk's novels this decade, we have a constructed premise, carried through in extremist. Here, the narrator is a teenaged Marxist terrorist from an unnamed African country who is embedded in a Midwestern white-bread family for purposes of blowing up the United States. His narration voice is faux-ignorant, the trope being that little "Pygmy" has learned English through indoctrination sessions back in the dictator-dominated home country. So we get formulations like "paste of tooth" and "United State" as well as frequent references to genitalia (another Palaniuk transgressive habit) as weapon (his penis, which turns out to be true enough), etc. I listened to this as an audiobook in a new format from Folium LLC, basically an iPhone/iPad app that gives much more control over scrolling and finding your place. Kudos, Folium. Had I not been listening, I probably would have gotten irritated, as I have in recent Palaniuk outings, but somehow I got sucked into the underlying story of this little guy trying to hate America (which is mercilessly satirized), but failing because he falls in love with "host cat sister" and befriends "host pig dog brother". It's harmless Chuck fun with his uusual bite.
