Damned

by Palahniuk Chuck
Damned
Damned

Satirical hell: Young girl's irreverent afterlife journey.

If you enjoy tales that blend dark humor with social commentary, "Damned" might just hit the spot. It's like a candy-coated pill, masking a sharp critique of society beneath its outrageous premise and setting. The protagonist, Madison, is not your typical damsel in distress—she's a fiery, witty soul navigating Hell's absurdities, which makes for a devilishly entertaining read. Chuck Palahniuk's signature style of unsettling yet compelling fiction shines in this infernal adventure.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Thirteen year old Madison has problems: she's overweight, ignored by her movie star parents, and in love with her adopted brother. She's also dead. But not just dead. Madison is in Hell. Chuck Palahniuk's latest, Damned, takes us on Madison's journey through Hell, as she navigates the Hillocks of Discarded Nail Pairings and the River of Vomit, meeting everyone from Charles Darwin to Marilyn Monroe, with a colorful cast of characters (damned for unspeakable acts, like wearing white shoes after Labor Day), to determine why she's really there, and whether she will be damned for eternity. In Damned, Hell really does exist, as a place where your only career choice is telemarketer (yes, that's where those calls actually originate), the currency is Halloween candy, and 'the in-flight movie is always The English Patient, never The Breakfast Club.' With witty, laugh-out-loud prose, and a twist like only Palahniuk can write, this dark comedic novel is sure to be ranked among his best.
