Although it receives less attention than Palahniuk's other books, in my opinion, Rant is by far his best work. The main character, Buster Casey, is crazy enough to be interesting, but sane enough that you can identify with him. Shocking without being revolting, Rant is Palahniuk at his finest.

I love Vonnegut, he's funny in a way few authors are and this books is a perfect reflection of how I see him. A commentary on modern society and it's relationship with religion, government, and warfare, Cats Cradle should be required reading for everyone.

This is by far the best book I've ever read. A truly unique cast of characters and Hemingway's sparse yet powerful prose make for a wonderful novel.
