Snuff

by Chuck Palahniuk
Review:
This is Palahniuk's ninth novel, which tells the story of Cassie Wright, an aging porn queen who wants to end her career by having sex with 600 men in one day on film. The story centers around conversations that take place backstage, while the men are waiting for their number to be called. Chock full of quirky facts involving famous actors and actresses, this almost reads like a work of nonfiction. Extremely gritty and downright sad at times, but nonetheless another brilliant masterpiece by one of America's raunchiest writers of the 20th century.
