Choke: A book by Chuck Palahniuk.

Choke, another masterpiece by Chuck Palahniuk. He’s once again suprised me with his genius, this book is put together quite like Fight Club, piece by piece. Each piece drawing you further into the story, confusing you.. then giving you a moment to process the events occuring. The story is rather intersting. A man named Victor Mancini, a medical-school dropout, needs to pay elder car for his mother. He does this by pretending to choke on pieces of food in high class resturants. He lets people “save” him. These saviors feel responsible for his life and send money, supporting him.
On the side, he vistis him mother and works at a colonial theme park. He spends time at sexual addiction recovery workshops for relaxation.

It’s a great and easy read. I recommend it!
