About the book
In a near-future United States, Chuck Palahniuk imagines aging politicians pushing the country toward a third world war to keep a swelling population of young men in check. A corrupt senator wants to bring back the draft, working-class men fantasize about burying the elites, and professors offer students nothing but bleak prospects. Meanwhile a small blue and black book by the mysterious Talbott Reynolds circulates across the country, its readers memorizing its directives, and a website called The List lets users vote on which public figures deserve to die. Word passes only among the most trusted that Adjustment Day is coming. The 2018 satire, from the author of Fight Club, appeared on the New York Times hardcover fiction best-seller list.
Foundry Group co-founder Brad Feld, a Palahniuk fan since Fight Club, found it the perfect fictional setup for his next read, Fascism: A Warning.

Ever since Fight Club, I’ve been a Chuck Palahniuk fan. His fiction is cloudy, complex, challenging, contemporary, and cynical. He’s basically the C-Man of fiction (go Chuck, go …) Adjustment Day was the perfect fictional setup for the next book I read, which was Fascism: A Warning.
