Rant is an oral history centered on Buster 'Rant' Casey, featuring voices from friends, enemies, admirers, and detractors who share their perspectives on this complex character. Born in a small town, Rant seeks real thrills beyond the confines of video games and movies. His unconventional lifestyle includes a penchant for rabies and seeking the effects of black widow spider bites. A high school rebel, he escapes to the city, where he becomes a leader in an urban demolition derby known as Party Crashing. Participants, identifiable by their uniquely decorated cars, engage in a chaotic game of stalking and crashing into each other during designated times and areas. Amidst this violent nightlife, Rant forms deep connections with three friends. Following his untimely death, these friends compile testimonies that reveal the impact of Rant's life, including allegations that his saliva caused a rabies outbreak in the city. This plague, however, serves as a catalyst for liberation, allowing his peers to break free from mundane routines. Expect a blend of humor, horror, and profound insights into the surreal aspects of contemporary life, delivered with the unique style of Chuck Palahniuk, who continues to push boundaries in modern literature.
