Neil Strauss is a former music writer for The New York Times and a self-proclaimed paranoid urban dweller. He is also the author of the best-selling book The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists.
Emergency is the personal story of the author’s transformation from a helpless urban dweller to an independent survivalist. It’s a first-hand account of how to train for complete autonomy should society as we know it collapse.
The Game (2005) gives readers an inside look into the “pickup community” frequented by men desperate to convince women to sleep with them. These blinks share the advice of a leading seduction guru, and the less than great consequences of his successes.
The Truth (2015) takes a close look at relationships, sex and trust, unpacking our assumptions about sex and arguing that monogamy may not be right for everyone.
The Long Hard Road Out of Hell is a gripping memoir by Marilyn Manson, co-written with Neil Strauss. It delves into Manson's tumultuous journey from a troubled childhood to becoming a controversial rock icon. Filled with shocking anecdotes and introspective musings, the book offers a raw and unapologetic account of Manson's rise to fame and the dark realities of the music industry.
