Synopsis

Begins here first account of operative me, agent number 67, on arrival Midwestern American airport.Code name: Operation Havoc. Thus speaks Pygmy, one of a handful of young adults from a totalitarian state sent to the U.S. disguised as exchange students to live with typical American families and blend in, all the while planning an unspecified attack of massive terrorism. Palahniuk depicts Midwestern life through the eyes of this thoroughly indoctrinated little killer, who hates us with a passion, in this cunning doubleedged satire of an American xenophobia that might, in fact, be completely justified.
