Fame is nice, but what about infamy? Edgy Pages is a club for exploring books that are the stuff of controversy and scandal, or inherently provocative.
In Shock Induction, Chuck Palahniuk exposes the dark side of success and ambition. When top students at an elite high school begin vanishing, rebellious overachiever Samantha Deel uncovers a system that auctions gifted youth to the ultra-wealthy. As she fights to take it down, she faces the brutal reality of power, exploitation, and the cost of resistance. True to style, Palahniuk delivers a scathing critique of capitalism and the commodification of human potential through satire and dark humor. Unsettling and provocative, Shock Induction forces readers to confront the hidden forces shaping modern society.
