Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk is a book that takes you on a trip through a mans insomniac life. A man known as "the narrator" suffers from insomnia and abruptly does things that he does not realize. After an attempt for the narrator to blow up his condo, he moves in with Tyler Durden. Tyler Durden becomes good friends with "the narrator." Little did the narrator know that Tyler Durden was him in his regular state of mind. Tyler and the narrator decided to start an underground fight club to take out aggression and just to have fun. These fight clubs spread around to big cities around the country. This book was banned on many levels of aggression. This insomniac character seemed to be in different states of mind that was too violent for people to read. The censorship history revolves around the many levels of violence that is experienced throughout the book by the different sides that the character acted in. Fight clubs have spread to many cities in real life and have become more of an issue after both this novel and the movie. It reflected a poor way of life for people to lead.

Relief for him and his peers comes in the form of Tyler Durden, the intensely charismatic inventor of Fight Club. Waiters, clerks, and middlemen seek out the visceral satisfaction of secret after-hours boxing matches in the basements of bars, thinking they have found a way to live beyond their confining and stultifying lives. But in Tyler's world there are no rules, no limits, no brakes.
