Publisher's summary

Random House presents the audiobook edition of Adjustment Day by Chuck Palahniuk.

People pass the word only to those they trust most: Adjustment Day is coming. They’ve been reading a mysterious blue-black book and memorising its directives. They are ready for the reckoning.

In this ingeniously comic work, Chuck Palahniuk’s first novel in four years, he does what he does best: skewer the absurdities in our society. Smug, geriatric politicians hatch a nasty fate for the burgeoning population of young males, working-class men dream of burying the elites and professors propound theories that offer students only the bleakest future. When it arrives, Adjustment Day inaugurates a new Disunited States of America.

In this mind-blowing novel, Palahniuk fearlessly makes real the logical conclusion of every separatist fantasy, alternative fact and conspiracy theory lurking in the American psyche.

An Awesome concept, poorly developed.

I came to listen this audiobook by recommendation of a friend who has listened the first chapter, the concept was exiting, concerning the present days.
But after the main event , the proper adjusment day, the story falls to a boring collection of confusing storylines of the "thousand" characters that the author presents.

I must confess that I finish the book for compromise and for make my audible's credit count.

A disappointing one.

Boring as sociology professor lecture

I am a fan of Chuck Palahniuk books but this book in some chapters transforms itself to a profesor lecture of alternating history. I prefer to discover the story through characters. The idea of the book is original and interesting however
