Fugitives and Refugees: A Walk in Portland, Oregon is a travelogue by novelist Chuck Palahniuk.[1]

The book alternates between autobiographical chapters, and lists of the author's favourite activities in his home city of Portland in the north western USA.

Palahniuk guides the reader to eviction court for evocative storytelling, a massive Goodwill (charity sale) for purchasing clothes by the pound, and to clubs and sexual fetish organizations.
