Fight Club is a 1996 novel by Chuck Palahniuk. It revolves around an unnamed insomniac narrator who works a blue-collar job. The narrator becomes addicted to feigning illness at support groups for people with illnesses and conditions which he himself does not have in order to get himself to sleep, but eventually becomes obsessively plagued by an apathetic woman named Marla who he sees at various support groups, finally connecting with her at a support group for people with testicular cancer. The narrator eventually meets Tyler Durden, who starts a Fight Club where men alleviate their stress through fighting; as the club goes larger and its acts more heinous, the narrator is forced to confront Tyler, who reveals his true identity...It was adapted into a movie starring Edward Norton, Brad Pitt and Helena Bonham Carter.A graphic novel sequel was announced for a 2015 release. | |

Subliminal Seduction | |
Fight Club / int_11d206ef | comment |
Subliminal Seduction: Tyler inserts single frames of pornography into children's films, and later threatens to reveal this to the public unless the boss of the projectionists' union pays him off. | |

Does This Remind You of Anything? | |
Fight Club / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: The Ho Yay between Tyler and the narrator is very much intentional. Later printings include an afterword where Palahniuk disclaims any credit for inventing the Cool Things. Waiters, he says, have always put foul things in aristocrats' food. Projectionists have always collected banned or distasteful works. Around the world and throughout recorded history, men have fought for the simple reason of celebrating their manliness. | |

He Who Fights Monsters: By the end, Tyler has shaped his group to be just as conformist as the consumerist society he's trying to overthrow, and in some cases, it's even worse. Many fans of the novel missed this point. | |

Disobey This Message | |
Fight Club / int_2e5def99 | comment |
Disobey This Message: A key component of Tyler's ideology is that he believes that individualism is a sham used by the elites to atomize and exploit the masses, and that it always ends in people doing what they're told even when they're told to be themselves. | |

Rated M for Manly | |
Fight Club / int_4da6ac | comment |
Rated M for Manly: One of the themes of the story is that society has neutered the male nature and made traditionally male impulses and activities shameful or discouraged — the Fight Club itself is, in part, a way for the characters to subvert society's expectations by releasing their impulses in secret (emphasis is put in dialogue on the Club being "for men only"). This makes it one of the most notable masculist (yes, there is such a thing) works out there. Given how the story ends, and the actual results of said Masculism, it would ultimately appear to be deconstructing the idea. Eventually, Fight Club is just the sort of conformist machine its members were seeking to escape, it just got a different set of rules. As noted elsewhere, the ultimate arc of the story seems to be "the oppression and stifling of consumer life is pretty bad, but there's something fundamentally wrong when you go around creating underground clubs that start fucking with people." | |

Homoerotic Subtext: All over the place, and in fact is an important part of the plot, since much of the conflict may stem from the Narrator's sexual confusion. The phallic imagery gets so out of control that at many points it's not even imagery. | |

Masquerade | |
Fight Club / int_6ef09297 | comment |
Masquerade: If you're not allowed to talk about Fight Club, you might never know who is in on it and who isn't. The narrator mentions that nobody knows whether a prank pulled in public was pulled by Project Mayhem or not because the first rule is you do not ask questions. This is lampshaded in both the book and movie when police officers the narrator is counting on to save him from castration appear to be part of Project Mayhem. | |

Fight Club / int_7464705c | comment |
Arc Words: Too many to count, this trope being a core part of Palahniuk's writing style (Palahniuk referred to them as "choruses"). They include... "On a long enough timeline the survival rate for everyone drops to zero." "I am Joe's *insert body part*." "Prepare to evacuate soul." "I know this because Tyler knows this." "Tyler's words coming out of my mouth. And I used to be such a nice person." "You're in Ireland." "'Valley of the dogs' style." "The miracle of death: one moment, you're a person, and the next, you're an object." | |

Fight Club / int_7db984b1 | comment |
Rule-Abiding Rebel: This is a major component of the satire. Project Mayhem, Tyler Durden's hyper-macho, anti-consumerist revolutionary group, is ultimately founded on the very same philosophical base as the culture that they think they overthrowing, buying into the same idealized vision of masculinity that they got from pop culture and society. They're not rebelling so much as they are lashing out mindlessly, still trying to get a perfect life as "real men", only through fighting and terrorism instead of consumerism. | |

Gainax Ending: In the prologue to the graphic novel sequel to the book, most, if not all, of the ending is implied to have been just the Narrator's own hallucinations while in the mental institution. A variant of the book's undeniably happened, except with Marla giving a more definite declaration of affection and onset of pregnancy, but the confrontation with Tyler is framed through both electro-shock therapy and the actual shot through the cheek. | |

Fight Club / int_e0113647 | comment |
Decon-Recon Switch: To messages to Be Yourself. Tyler's view is that this trope, far from liberating people, does little more than turn them into atomized pawns of consumer capitalism with nobody to turn to for help, and endeavors to recreate a lost sense of brotherhood among men. The reconstruction comes when the story turns around and deconstructs Tyler's own worldview, which eventually turns into a totalitarian cult that dehumanizes its subjects even more thoroughly than they were before. The Narrator's victory comes from rebelling against Tyler and becoming his own man. | |
