Summary

Summary

New York Times bestseller

A New York Post’s “Required Reading” List selection

New York Times Bestseller

Adjustment Day is an ingenious darkly comic work in which Chuck Palahniuk does what he does best: skewer the absurdities in our society. Geriatric politicians bring the nation to the brink of a third world war to control the burgeoning population of young males, while working-class men dream of burying the elites. Adjustment Day’s arrival makes real the logical conclusion of every separatist fantasy, alternative fact, and conspiracy theory lurking in the American psyche.

“An irreverent satirical fantasy about a sudden and violent upheaval. … Think Tom Robbins channeling Jonathan Swift."Seattle Times

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“A quick, horrifying descent into madness and murder, gorgeous in its psychotic build-up and over-the-top execution.” NPR
“A send-up of the many absurdities in our society.” New York Post
“Palahniuk toys with our cultural dividing lines―race, class, sexuality―and all the fears, myths, and conspiracies that come along with them. The result is a novel that straddles both the horrific and the absurd, kind of like present-day America.” Vice
Adjustment Day feels, in many ways, like a novel made out of the times we’re living in―one in which cult of personality (and a desire to belong to specific tribes) fractures the world people are familiar with, and creates something different―and worse―in its wake.” Hollywood Reporter
