Why were the narrator and Tyler going to bomb the building?
The narrator and Tyler were on a 191 and story building and he was about to blow it up. Down stairs the people threw out stuff out the window. They were all going to die so why break the window. Tyler had a gun in the narrator’s mouth and said if he moved he would die. I assumed that the narrator must have tried to stop but could not. Later in the chapter Tyler says he wants to be part of history that is why he is blowing up the worlds tallest building. Tyler I later learn had a hard life and by doing this he would get a quick way to fame. Tyler tells the narrator how to make these kinds of weapons, giving him tons of examples. He tells us how to make napalm in three different ways, nerve gas, and car bombs. As I am reading this I am thinking this guy is crazy, but at the end this is all about a girl named Marla. The narrator wants Tyler, Tyler wants Marla, and Marla wants the narrator. The narrator I find out is a guy in the next chapter showing us he is gay.
I've not read this book, but I've read a lot about this author. There's an on-going debate about whether he's nuts or whether he's a genius. I'll be interested to hear what you think at the end. He certainly tends to write graphic, action-packed stories...as you've seen already.
