Self-destruction in the works of Chuck Palahniuk
 LIEDERS, Tereza
The topic of the following MA thesis is the theme of self-destruction in the works of Chuck Palahniuk, an American author whose novels frequently deal with the disintegration of contemporary society. Self-destruction, which the author often describes in violent details, is in his works portrayed as a form of civil disobedience and as a tool for dealing with social and personal problems. The first section of the thesis will explore the legacy of civil disobedience in American culture as well as violence as a recurring motif in US literature. The next section deals with transgressive fiction, a type of literature Palahniuk is frequently connected to, followed by an overview of his literary output. The last part of the thesis further explores some of his novels and the role self-destruction plays in them.
