Best book for film set design project
Hi all, this is my first post so i'll introduce myself briefly...
Like many I discovered Chuck via Fight Club the movie, then went on to read everything of his I could get my hands on. I've dropped in on the cult very occasionally but never got round to giving it the time it deserves. So now i'm here because I want something...
I'm in my final year of a degree in Film & TV Set Design and I have to pick a book I like to develop a design scheme for (just hypothetical, unfortunately). Naturally I'm drawn to Chuck's books because I know I can spend a year with one under the microscope and still not get bored of it.
My question then, is which book has the most interesting locations and creative settings? I'd like to choose from my personal favorites;
Invisible Monsters
Survivor
Lullaby
All input greatly appreciated 
welcome, (and nice first post by the way)
I will go with Invisible Monsters, because its my favourite too.(locations? slaughterhouse, sea bathroom, department store)
Tell us a litlle more about yourself, gender, favourite writers and directors, wich drugs you abuse of.
Enjoy the madness
Thanks guys.
I'm 22 and male from the UK. A few of my favourite directors; Todd Solondz, Paul Thomas Anderson, Richard Linklater, Brad Bird and of course, Fincher. I generally like character based stories with a dark edge, dry humor and intelligence. I'm a big fan of Six Feet Under and writer Allan Ball.
My first instinct for this set design project was Monsters, for the burning house, junkyard photo shoot, department store and parents house in hyper-defensive mode. I just wondered if there were some good settings in the other books that I might have forgotten about.
If you like character based stories with a dark edge you MUST read American Psycho.
Yes, thanks Kakunn - I read American Psycho about 3 years ago and now it's under my bed haunting me. Never has a book toyed with my mind so much, I really don't trust myself to read it again and not slide over the edge...
I also thoroughly enjoyed The Contortionists Handbook but not so much Dermaphoria. I liked Magical Thinking by Augusten Burroughs (incredibly personal in places) and would like to check him out more. Another name I caught passing through here ages ago is Will Christopher Baeur(?) but I've yet to read anything from him - any recommendations there?
DEFINITELY Invisible Monsters, the other two are like, impossible! If I were you though, I'd pick Diary... but it's not on your list so nevermind... but still...
hello and welcome
that's a tough one, but I'd go with Invisible Monsters or Survivor, they are both brilliant iin different ways and I suppose it would be tough to choose between them.
