Title: Captive Audience: On Love and Reality TV Author: Lucas Mann Narrator: Lucas Mann Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 54 minutes Release date: May 1, 2018 Genres: Arts & Entertainment Publisher's Summary: From the national bestselling author of Lord Fear and Class A comes 'a tender, humane, comic, brainy, unsettling achievement” (Paul Lisicky, author of The Narrow Door: A Memoir of Friendship) about what it means to live an authentic life and what it means to love a person.  In Lucas Mann's trademark vein—fiercely intelligent, self-deprecating, brilliantly observed, idiosyncratic, personal, funny, and infuriating—Captive Audience is an appreciation of reality television wrapped inside a love letter to his wife, with whom he shares the guilty pleasure of watching 'real' people bare their souls in search of celebrity. Captive Audience resides at the intersection of popular culture with the personal; the exhibitionist impulse, with the schadenfreude of the vicarious, and in confronting some of our most suspect impulses reveals surprising connections and the meaning of an authentic life.
