Powerful. Honest. Real. I have watched a lot of his interviews and it was nice to hear the story in a linear way.

While playing The Last of Us II I saw this book sitting on a table and took note of it. I figured it must of very specifically been placed there. This story was incredible. I think it would make a great movie.

Since the landmark Obergefell v. Hodges Supreme Court decision in 2015, sexual identity has dominated both public discourse and cultural trends — yet no historical phenomenon is its own cause.

Difficult but important
Revisado: 01-16-24
This is probably one of the most difficult books I have come across. I started reading it and was having trouble. A friend recommended that I follow along in the book while listening to it. That proved to be very helpful and helped me retain the difficult subject matter.

Historia
Chuck Palahniuk, the author of the New York Times best-sellers Fight Club and Lullaby, is known for his edgy novels, and Rant is no exception. Palahniuk presents this fictional biography of Buster "Rant" Casey in a series of vignettes told by the people who knew him best. As intricate as a spider web, Rant succeeds in recounting the story of one man's life only through the eyes of others. But the question remains, "Who was Rant Casey?"

Such a fascinating story. The brilliance of Chuck is second to none. I have never read a story that was entirely structured by interviews.

Great story; bad narration
Revisado: 11-04-23
Really enjoyed the book. Great story with a great plot. However, there were a lot of pauses in the narration and I had to put it at 1.2x to make it flow better.

I would say this is probably my least favorite out of all McCarthy’s work. Narration is fantastic. Really brought the story to life.
