Publication Information
Appallingly entertaining, Haunted is Chuck Palahniuk at his
finest—which means his most extreme and his most provocative.
"What elevates Palahniuk...is his ability to find humanity in deeply grotesque characters. But such generosity of spirit is not evident in his latest."- Publishers Weekly.
"...this novel will please Palahniuk's hardcore fans and few others. -- Booklist
