#374 Romance- Chuck Palahniuk


#374 Romance- Chuck Palahniuk

It gets to the point where you see a Palahniuk story with a title like Romance, and you spend the whole time waiting for the dark, twisted, creepy “reveal.” Maybe because I was clenched for it, I didn’t find the twist that creepy. In a way, this is a touching love story about a man finding true happiness.

Love and happiness are both individual pursuits. Not everyone likes what you like, and if you can find someone who’s faults you can not only live with, but adore…maybe that’s true love.

Notable Passage: “Everybody looks a little crazy if you’re looking close enough, and if you can’t look that close then you don’t really love them.”
