In this clever and timely cultural commentary, award-winning author Sallie Tisdale tackles this issue by framing it in a familiar way—reality TV, particularly the long-running CBS show \u003ci\u003eSurvivor\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n With her insightful and compelling writing, Tisdale illuminates the ins and outs of fandom: from the fan forum where statistical analysis is used to predict outcomes of the show to the show’s underreported history of racism and sexual assault. With humor and in-depth superfan analysis, Tisdale explores the distinction between suspended disbelief and true authenticity both in how we watch shows like \u003ci\u003eSurvivor\u003c\/i\u003e, and in how we perceive the world around us.","brand":"Print on demand - Ships in 1 to 3 months","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46916177133726,"sku":"HPC-9781982175900","price":39.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781982175900.jpg?v=1780037315","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781982175900","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
