In Chuck Palahniuk's book, Fight Club, male aggression rises as a new, emotional escape from the stresses of society. An underground movement forms after the unamed protagonist insomniac and a charismatic soap salesman, Tyler Durder, form an unexpected bond on an airplane. The two begin to fight each other for relief and with little time, other working class, pissed off men begin to join.
A world with no attachment to women, anarchy, and fighting seems perfect. However, things become complicated when Durden becomes implicated in a sexual relationship with Marla Singer, a pessimistic and seductive female. While Durden's sexual actions would not typically concern the insomniac, the unnamed protagonist has previously developed an undying loathing towards Marla. The insomniacs hate for Marla will test everything that Fight Club stands for and the aberrations that are revealed will leave the reader's jaw dropped.
