There's a theory that the main character actually is suffering from cancer and that the love interest is also a lens for him to confront who he really is.
Fascinating how that upends it all, but I am not sure I believe it.
There's also a theory that Tyler Durden is created in response to The Narrator's inability to form a real personal relationship with Marla.
There are a million Fight Club theories. My favourite is that the narrator is Calvin and Tyler is Hobbes.
