Pygmy: краткое содержание, описание и аннотация

Предлагаем к чтению аннотацию, описание, краткое содержание или предисловие (зависит от того, что написал сам автор книги «Pygmy»). Если вы не нашли необходимую информацию о книге — напишите в комментариях, мы постараемся отыскать её.

Palahniuk's 10th novel (after Snuff) is a potent if cartoonish cultural satire that succeeds despite its stridently confounding prose. A gang of adolescent terrorists trained by an unspecified totalitarian state (the boys and girls are guided by quotations attributed to Marx, Hitler, Augusto Pinochet, Idi Amin, etc.) infiltrate America as foreign exchange students. Their mission: to bring the nation to its knees through Operation Havoc, an act of mass destruction disguised as a science project. Narrated by skinny 13-year-old Pgymy, the propulsive plot deconstructs American fixtures, among them church (religion propaganda distribution outlet), spelling bees (forced battle to list English alphabet letters) and TV news reporters (Horde scavenger feast at overflowing anus of world history), before moving on to a Columbine-like shooting spree by a closeted kid who has fallen in love with the teenage terrorist who raped him in a shopping mall bathroom. Decoding Palahniuk's characteristically scathing observations is a challenge, as Pygmy's narrative voice is unbound by rules of grammar or structure (a typical sentence: Host father mount altar so stance beside bin empty of water), but perseverance is its own perverse reward in this singular, comic accomplishment.

Squalling inflamed phallus hunt squealing children.

Same now, tiny telephone host sister sound ring. Adamant ring.

Phone applied ear, cat sister say, “Dad?” Dodging aflame path killer phallus, host sister say, “You’re in jail?

Same then, teeth operative me spread wide, legs spring, jawbone this agent snap shut, find purchase around flaming missile, snatch-catch , perfect Biting Bulldog. Crush renegade phallus. Molars render no longer threat.

All present strike together palms. Raucous cacophony applause. Attempt strike palms upon scapular this agent.

Begins here thirtieth account of operative me, agent number 67, upon return religion propaganda distribution outlet of city XXXXXX. Seated among throng many citizen, vacuous lazy multitude citizen state XXXXXX. Philosophically lax, morally despicable, culturally exhausted membership congregation religious community XXXXXX. On occasion disposal cadaver devil Tony for nourish soil denizens.

Snake nest. American den of evil. Hive of corruption.

Casket containing devil staged position, same shrine location as casket of clear-yellow bully. Same location previous casket gun-shot delegate Zaire, delegate East Timor, Egypt, Brazil.

Open of ceremony, string embedded all paraffin cylinder, strings inflamed. Space perfumed genitals lush plant life. Statue man still dead, plaster bleeding red paint. Mounting altar of worship shrine, crippled zombie, stumbling ancient skeleton Doris Lilly.
