Fight Club
“The first rule about fight club is that you don’t talk about fight club” (Palahniuk 87). The story of Fight Club was very nail biting; you never knew what was going to happen next.

It wasn’t till the end that he showed them as one person, and he then recapped on the entire story and how other viewers saw it without Tyler actually being there.
Marla popped up several times throughout the story,...
