    Chuck Palahniuk may be best known for Fight Club, and in this audiobook on the craft of writing, he shares what he’s learned over the years. AudioFile’s Jonathan Smith and host Jo Reed discuss Edoardo Ballerini’s talent as a narrator, making what could seem a self-aggrandizing work approachable and engaging. He conveys a degree of snark that anyone who has read Palahniuk won’t be surprised to hear.
