Rumor has it that Chuck once punched Sue Grafton in the face at a party for 'staring at his junk'.
That was her inspiration for the book K is for Knuckle-Sandwich.

Well, in our Recommendations section, we have a list of "Chuck Approved" books.
http://chuckpalahniuk.net/recommended/books/chuck-approved

You could probably assume that if he likes the books, he also has some like of the author. So click a book, then click the author's name to find more of their stuff.

no author worth his salt will mention anything along the lines of beef with other writers. you dont wanna distract readers; you wanna encourage fans to keep picking up books. chuck is the new opposite-fifty.

chuck's god in writing is amy hempel. she loves mark richard. chuck loves LOVES denis johnson's work, particularly jesus' son. (he read that one a reported three hundred times before writing his first horror novel, lullaby.

but, yeah.. to kirk you listen
chuck has a collection of recommends in the author recommends section. one of his favorite contemporary authors is craig clevenger. one of craig's favorite writers is will christopher baer. one of his favorite books is sanctuary by faulkner.

if you want subversive as fuck, and hard as fuck noir, check out pop 1280. also, the postman always rings twice. another subversive book i share a love with bret easton ellis is in the cut.

you'll likely love the 25th hour, and blood meridian, and arc d'x
among many others....

Douglas Coupland is Canadian...

I'm pretty sure you're digging too deep.
