«Asfixia» is the contemporary fiction novel by Chuck Palahniuk, published by Debolsillo in paperback (336 pages, in Spanish).
Victor Mancini, a medical student, funds his mother's care by faking choking in restaurants so that whoever saves him sends him money. He alternates these scams with a job at a colonial theme park, sex-addict therapy, and visits to his mother; a biting satire on manipulation and guilt.
It belongs to the Contemporánea collection and was translated by Javier Calvo Perales; the original novel, Choke, was published in 2001.
It suits readers of Chuck Palahniuk's narrative, author of Fight Club, and those seeking dark-toned satire.
