Fight Club

Book • 1996
The novel follows an unnamed protagonist struggling with insomnia and a meaningless corporate job.

He finds relief by attending cancer support groups, but his life changes when he meets Tyler Durden, a mysterious and charismatic figure.

Together, they establish an underground fight club, which evolves into 'Project Mayhem', a cult-like organization aimed at dismantling modern society through chaos and public unrest.

The book explores themes of toxic masculinity, consumerism, and the search for meaning in a postmodern world.
