essay on the book Fight club by Chuck Palahniuk answering the prompt: How can
subconscious motivation be determined in Flight Club by
Chuck Palahniuk? What forms of repression are present within the novel? How
does these forms of repression motivate character behavior?
1.The twist ending in
Fight Club illustrates how the seemingly separate characters of the Narrator
and Tyler Durden are just parts of one individual. The speaker becomes
increasingly dissatisfied with their unfulfilling life driven by mass
consumption until they develop a second persona named Tyler to evade reality
(Palahniuk, 2018). Tyler embodies all of the traits this person desires but has
thus far been unable to manifest due to their self-imposed limitations
(Palahniuk, 2018). It was made clear to the main character of this novel that
his true identity was Tyler Durden; creating a fresh personality is how the
protagonist escapes their jail of thought.
