For some background, the main character, Victor, is a sex addict who fakes choking at diners (hence the title) for financial support. Though he describes his addiction realistically for much of the book (as a burden with psychiatric origins, though never too depressingly), as a quintessential mouthpiece of Palahniuk he approaches it every bit as much with comedic irony ... and graphic, GRAPHIC detail.
Consider this except, from a scene in which Victor and a fellow sex addict, Nico, sneak off to a bathroom for some "round the world" (a sex move I've never heard of outside this book but would love to learn about):
--
"For a sex addict, your tits, your dick, your clit or tongue or asshole is a shot of heroin, always there, always ready to use. Nico and I love each other as much as any junkie loves his fix.
Nico bears down hard, bucking my dog against the front wall of her insides, using two wet fingers on herself.
I say, 'What if that cleaning woman walks in?'
And Nico stirs me around inside herself, saying 'Oh yeah. That would be so hot.'"
---
Or a later scene, in which he bangs another addict named Leeza, "splitting her ass so hard that, with every drive, she head-butts a shelf of folded rags," all while "licking the sweat off her back for a nicotine buzz" and doing just about anything to keep his "hard-burning dog" from "triggering."
Mmmmm. It's the details. And the unusual vocabulary. I've jerked off to this book more times than I care to admit, because it's just THAT hot in a way photos and videos can't be. (There is a movie adaptation, for example, which I find just okay.)
I especially like his calling his penis his "dog" and his cum his "white soldiers," and am frustrated that there aren't more erotica authors that use those terms -- though, to be fair, I am reluctant to Google search "dog" and other terms that might be relevant ... for obvious reasons. I wouldn't mind seeing some fanfics of Victor and his off-novel exploits.
Still, why isn't this book more widely embraced as a work of erotica? Is it because only a few chapters have graphic sex in them?
