The eleventh novel by Chuck Palahniuk.The eleventh "bestseller for intellectuals", in which he subtly and maliciously sneers at the theme of "Pygmalion and Galatea", and at the same time — at the realities of Hollywood.The "eternal Loser" and the eternal Pygmalion is an elderly Hazikugan, an ugly and incredibly gifted actress whose true vocation was to make superstars out of mediocre starlets.Her favorite ward is the dazzling beauty and equally dazzling fool Catherine Kenton, who is forever rewarded for unremarkable roles, forever seduced and used, made fun of — and adored.And finally, the grasping, cynical Alphonse Webster, who has very far—reaching plans for Catherine Kenton...Almost anything can come out of such a triangle, but something more comes out. Much more.
