I don't understand this club. Why does it have otherwise unknown writings by authors, etc.? Why does it have an unaging butler? Why does it have a small door in it? Why is there a slithering bump heard? What is the connection to an alien world? Do these things make sense to anyone else, more than to me?

The author clarifies at his own back cover that: "This men's club is actually a metaphor, it's the narrator's mind, it's the whole process of storytelling". so don't try to find a usual book club because It's all based on a metaphor. So the batler, the door, the bumb heard and for me even the fire has a direct connection to the mind. When I read it, I compose every single detail that you point and in my mind I pictured the thinking of the author and if you combine these details they create the soul and the mind of a human. My personal opinion is that you should give it a second chance and read it again and then you will see the deeper meaning. Sometimes to really understand a book needs to read it more than one. I hope that I helped you and don't forget: "HISTORY IS IMPORTANT, NOT THE ONE WHO NARRATES IT".(less)
