The year 1999 brought great personal tragedy to Palahniuk's life. At that time, his father, Fred Palahniuk, had started dating a woman named Donna Fontaine whom he had met through a personal ad under the title "Kismet". Fontaine had recently put her ex-boyfriend Dale Shackleford in prison for sexual abuse. Shackleford had vowed to kill Fontaine as soon as he was released from prison. Palahniuk believes that through her personal ad, Fontaine was looking for "the biggest man she could find" to protect her from Shackleford and Palahniuk's father fit this description.[6] After his release, Shackleford followed Fontaine and the senior Palahniuk to Fontaine's home in Kendrick, Idaho, after they had gone out for a date. Shackleford then shot them both and dragged their bodies into Fontaine's cabin home, which he set on fire immediately afterwards. In the spring of 2001, Shackleford was found guilty for two counts of murder in the first degree and sentenced to death. In the wake of these events, Palahniuk began working on the novel Lullaby. According to him, he wrote the novel to help him cope with having helped decide to have Shackleford get the death sentence.



:eek:  i did not know that.

Acid doesn't give you truths; it builds machines that push the envelope of perception. Whatever revelations came to me then have dissolved like skywriting. All I really know is that those few years saddled me with a faith in the redemptive potential of the imagination which, however flat, stale and unprofitable the world seems to me now, I cannot for the life of me shake.

Damn I need to read SOMETHING by him.  Haven't gotten to his works yet...and I still keep buying books.

You know what a great place to buy books is??  Goodwill.  I've gotten over 20 books in the last month, and have spent less than $1 a piece.  One book I got was a perfect condition of this book on tribes.  Huge book, hardcover, perfect condition...$2.  A steal.  The public library just had a used book sale.  Got a unused copy of Catch-22....$.50

Fuck paying $15 a book.  :smile:



Sorry for the thread hijack. :blush:

Don't start with 'Diary'.  It's the only Palahniuk novel I've ever read, and it made me not want to read any others.  :frown:
