I may be totally wrong, but I expect Palahniuk and Welsh to be

>Damned
Invisible Monsters or Rant are his best books, Damned is WAY down the line.

Why would an American and a Scotsman have cockney vibes? None of those three are similar at all.

I can't really recommend you anything since I've only read a book by each (Porno and Fight Club) but neither are as bad as /lit/ makes em out to be, they're good "soft" lit if you get me, the sort of authors you read when you don't really wanna grapple with a "literary tour de force"

I like the odd trashy book. Something really easy going where I don't have to look up words. Like a shlocky horror move.

>>9305641
Partly due to above - but more specifically I'm not sure. From my very vague knowledge of the contents of their books I expected similar subjects.

>>9305639
That's a shame. It's something that jumped out as most interesting to me.

>>9305661
Yeah, that's exactly what I'm talking about, same with William Gibson and Stephenson. They're the equivalent of quasi-dumb sci-fi shit.

The thing with Palahniuk is that he's good right? But each book he put out was less good than the last, until even I, a fanatic lover of palahniuk (I'll fuckin' admit it) threw the towel in. I'll tier them for you:
>Invisible Monsters, Rant
>Fight Club, Lullaby
>Choke, Survivor, Haunted
>Pygmy, Diary, Snuff, Tell-All

After that, I couldn't read anymore.
