The book I've chosen had a long hard road to its readers.

It is the third Palagnuik's novel to be published, though it was his second written novel. The novel was originally supposed to be Palahniuk's first novel to be published, but it was rejected by the publisher for being too disturbing. After the success of his novel "Fight Club", "Invisible Monsters" was given a second chance, and a revised version of it was published in 1999.
