Summary

Cassie Wright, porn priestess, intends to cap her legendary career by breaking the world record for serial fornication. On camera. With 600 men. Snuff unfolds from the perspectives of Mr. 72, Mr. 137, and Mr. 600, who await their turn on camera in a very crowded green room. This wild, lethally funny, and thoroughly researched novel brings the huge yet underacknowledged presence of pornography in contemporary life into the realm of literary fiction at last. Who else but Chuck Palahniuk would dare do such a thing? Who else could do it so well, so unflinchingly, and with such an incendiary (you might say) climax?

Critic reviews

"Striking characters, sharp parody, and a tight plot....Highly recommended for mature [audiences]." ( Library Journal)

strange but interesting

I was hot and cold on this one, the characters are well written but it's a pretty mean spirited but pretty enjoyable for how short it is.

Didnt really hear the difference for characters

Not the best of Chuck Palahniuk, but still very much enjoyed! I've read a lot of his books now and found this one difficult to tell which character was taking over the story in each chapter. probably best to actually read rather than listen

A return to form

A total return to form for Palahniuk and the most I've enjoyed one of his books for many years.
After loving his first three or four I felt he went off the boil, moving away from the dark underbelly of human nature into other areas that just didn't have the same edge. SNUFF makes up for that, however, an intricately structured, utterly engaging listen.
There are the usual tics (verbal and literary) which have become Palahniuk's trademark and although at times it can get a little much it also really does help to crystallise the individual personalities of each of the main characters. There's also the trademark twist which wasn't exactly a surprise but the story kept me involved deeply enough that I wasn't really thinking too much about what might happen.
Snappy, hip but also extremely moving and perfectly shaped (sorry to go a bit synesthetic), this was a fantastic listen

A little muddled

I liked a lot of the elements here, and maybe I need a relisten but it felt like the story went in too many different directions in the end
