Stephen Fishbach: Escape

About

Two-time Survivor contestant Stephen Fishbach brings an insider’s perspective to his sharp, suspenseful novel about ambition, survival and second chances.

Drawing on his own experience as a two-time Survivor contestant, Stephen Fishbach’s sharply observed novel Escape! follows a washed-up reality television star and a disgraced producer, each chasing a second chance on a new survival show where every contestant has been cast as a type, every storyline has been carefully engineered and the stakes soon become far greater than anyone imagined.

Join Fishbach with host Veronica Sullivan for a conversation about the blurred boundaries between performance and authenticity, and what our appetite for spectacle reveals about contemporary culture.
