Description

"Begins here first account of operative me, agent number 67 on arrival Midwestern airport....Code name: Operation Havoc." Thus speaks Pygmy, one of a handful of young adults from a totalitarian state sent to the U.S. disguised as exchange students to live with typical American families and blend in, all the while planning an unspecified attack of massive terrorism. Palahniuk depicts Midwestern life through the eyes of this thoroughly indoctrinated little killer, who hates us with a passion, in this cunning double-edged satire of an American xenophobia that might, in fact, be completely justified.

Reviews

Booklist (starred review)...
"In a time of justifiable concern about terrorism, Palahniuk has written a hilarious novel about an unlikely terrorist cell....[The author's fans] will welcome his return to the fine form of Fight Club. Palahniuk leaps over the line of good taste—and lands squarely on his feet."
