Snuff: Chuck Palahniuk

First published on 25 Jun 2008. Updated on 7 Jul 2008.

Porn queen, Cassie Wright, wants to crown her illustrious career by smashing the world record for serial fornication.

As the cameras roll, Snuff unspools from the perspectives of Mr 72, Mr 137 and Mr 600 as they await their grubby cameos.

But these three men - a disgraced actor, callow youth and ageing porn star - each harbour some very heavy secrets.

Lurid, compelling and spiked with evil twists, Snuff confirms Palahniuk's position as the king of schlock and awe.
