Abstract

The article describes the ways of conceptualizing the conceivable worlds in altered states of mind at the example of the main character’s conceivable world in Chuck Palahniuk’s “Fight Club”. From the conducted analysis it can be seen that the world of people in altered states of consciousness can expand significantly. This hypertrophied expansion goes along the axis of space and time. This expansion of the mental world goes along with the expansion of the moral and legal boundaries of what is permissible. The main character is trying to change the social order.
