Thank ye kindly.
> Have you read Palahniuk's SURVIVOR? I haven't read IM yet, but SURVIVOR is perhaps funnier than FIGHT CLUB, if less visceral (my favorite part's a strangely Freudian scene in a public restroom stall).
Unfortunately, no. SURVIVOR surfaced in Australia only briefly, and at
a time when I couldn't afford it. I'm still trying to track down a copy
locally.

I liked it quite a lot. I think there are a few similarities between it
and MONSTERS, actually; if you liked it, you'll like GLAMORAMA.

You're right. I did do a review, and it's in the archives somewhere.
