Merry Christmas!
Congrats on crossing the thousand-points mark…a strong start to the new year!
Orli, I never realized this was you! Ariele just told me.
I was at Galil the other weekend, and I found the wall where you had written your name and all the years you were there. It was funny, I took a picture.

I'll try it. Thank you!
Well, that's sort of the crux of the thing. Fiction-wise I'm not as enthusiastic or knowledgeable about anyone else. What I like about Palaniuk, though, is his prism of American subcultures, themes involving the pursuit of pleasure/satisfaction through (purifying) degradation and destruction, and his masculine voice as has been noted. Of course, the whole is greater than the parts and that includes his brilliant language and narrative. So, I don't know... not looking for a clone but a similarly intense experience. Thanks.
