Chuck Palahniuk, author of "Fight Club," decried today's "boiled-down" book culture and told FOX News he tries to put his "crazy" on the page, saying young people will only be interested in reading if the literature is "risky." Known for its famous first two rules — "you do not talk about Fight Club" — the book-turned-film became iconic in the 1990s and won a list of awards. He shared why he's not shy about making people uncomfortable while routinely writing about taboo topics like sex, murder and drugs. "I am genuinely crazy, but I try to put my crazy on the page," he said. Palahniuk's new book "Not Forever, But For Now" is a horror satire and was released Sept. 5.
