內容簡介

《鬥陣聚樂部》作者強勢回歸!


這件事,他們只跟自己最信任的人說:清算日就快到了。


這些人一直在讀一本神秘的藍黑封面書、熟記裡面的指示。
他們準備好要算帳了。


《鬥陣聚樂部》作者恰克‧帕拉尼克4年來第一本長篇小說。
本書延續他最擅長的個人風格:將社會潛藏的荒謬,一口氣全部挑起曝光:

體面的年老政治家們,為年輕一代孕育出一個骯髒的社會。   
勞動階級夢想把菁英階層的人們全都幹掉。
教授灌輸的艱深理論,只是將學生送進越來越嚴峻的未來。



不過,這一切只要到了清算日,就會全部被顛覆!
因為「美利堅不合眾國」(Disunited States of America)即將誕生!


作者帕拉尼克大膽將潛藏在「美國精神」下的分離主義、另類事實(Alternative facts)、和陰謀論等政治不正確想法,一次弄成真!

The author of Fight Club takes America beyond our darkest dreams in this timely satire.

People pass the word only to those they trust most: Adjustment Day is coming. They’ve been reading a mysterious blue-black book and memorising its directives. They are ready for the reckoning.

In this ingeniously comic work, Chuck Palahniuk’s first novel in four years, he does what he does best: skewer the absurdities in our society. Smug, geriatric politicians hatch a nasty fate for the burgeoning population of young males; working-class men dream of burying the elites; and professors propound theories that offer students only the bleakest future. When it arrives, Adjustment Day inaugurates a new, disunited states.

In this mind-blowing novel, Palahniuk fearlessly makes real the logical conclusion of every separatist fantasy, alternative fact, and conspiracy theory lurking in the American psyche.
