Adjustment Day is an ingenious darkly comic work in which Chuck Palahniuk does what he does
best: skewer the absurdities in our society. Geriatric politicians bring the nation to the
brink of a third world war to control the burgeoning population of young males while
working-class men dream of burying the elites. Adjustment Day’s arrival makes real the logical
conclusion of every separatist fantasy alternative fact and conspiracy theory lurking in the
American psyche.
