Invisible Monsters Remix by Chuck Palahniuk

Extended Synopsis

Injected with new material and unique design elements, Invisible Monsters Remix fulfills Chuck Palahniuk's original vision for his 1999 masterpiece. This daring satire on beauty and the fashion industry follows a fashion model who once had everything—a career, a boyfriend, and a loyal best friend. After a sudden freeway "accident" leaves her disfigured and incapable of speech, she transforms from the center of attention to an "invisible monster."

Her journey toward reinvention begins when she meets Brandy Alexander, the Queen Supreme, who teaches her that salvation lies in the last places one would ever want to look. High fashion, betrayal, and petty larceny fuel this deliciously comic and harrowing tidal wave of emotion. The Remix edition offers a non-linear reading experience that makes the catastrophes and catastrophes feel more visceral and cunning than ever before.

Accolades

“A harrowing, perverse, laugh-aloud funny rocket ride of catastrophes… Gutsy, terse and cunning, Invisible Monsters may emerge as Palahniuk’s strongest book.”

— Greg Berkman, Seattle Times
