Synopsis In this black comedy, a reporter investigating a sudden spike in the number of infant deaths discovers a link between each of the victims--apparently all had been read a particular poem from a mysterious book found at the scene of each death. His subsequent investigation leads him into contact with everyone from librarians to witches to eco-terrorists.

Industry Reviews "Chuck Palahniuk has already declared that his warped new novel...makes his ultra-violent first novel, FIGHT CLUB, look like LITTLE WOMEN. These words are bound to excite Palahniuk's hard-bitten acolytes....[But his] murders are too many to be moving and too few to give the story the heft and scope of an apocalyptic vision. LULLABY feels like a reckless first draft, seemingly written on a binge; reading it is like reading a long e-mail message about someone's senseless, if inventive, nightmare." New York Times Book Review - Virginia Heffernan (10/20/2002)
