Description

'Maybe our generation has found its Don DeLillo' Bret Easton Ellis By the author of Fight Club She's a catwalk model who has everything- a boyfriend, a career, a loyal best friend. But when a sudden motor 'accident' leaves her disfigured and incapable of speech, she goes from being the beautiful centre of attention to being an invisible monster, so hideous that no one will acknowledge she exists. Enter Brandy Alexander, Queen Supreme, one operation away from being a real woman, who will teach her that reinventing yourself means erasing your past and making up something better, and that salvation hides in the last place you'll ever want to look. The narrator must exact revenge upon Evie, her best friend and fellow model; kidnap Manus, her two-timing ex-boyfriend; and hit the road with Brandy in search of a brand-new past, present and future.

Reviews

Chuck Paluhniuk is on outstanding writer, who has never failed, in my eyes, at producing beautiful novels [Invisible Monsters] never fails to shock as you follow the twists and turns of this revenge filled novel -- Abi Donoghue * Pluto Online *
Maybe our generation has found its Don DeLillo -- Bret Easton Ellis
This is a wild ride of a novel * Booklist *
Palahniuk is one of the freshest, most intriguing voices to appear in a long time. He rearranges Vonnegut's sly humour, DeLillo's mordant social analysis and Pynchon's antic surrealism into a gleaming puzzle palace all his own * New York Newsday *
