Shopping Cart & Checkout Submersion JournalismReporting in the Radical First Person from Harper’s Magazine $26.95  What is submersion journalism? It happens when a reporter dares to tell a story from the inside: to participate in the events at hand, sometimes undercover, and then to tell the tale from a distinct point of view rather than pretend to some ideal of objectivity—thus producing work that is not only highly entertaining but also more honest, more realistic, and much more revealing than conventional journalism. It is a breed of reporting that Harper’s Magazine has fostered to brilliant effect. Bringing together the best of this reportage, SUBMERSION JOURNALISM provides a vividly entertaining window into modern matters usually overlooked or misunderstood by hurdy-gurdy media. From Jeff Sharlet living in an all-male evangelical Christian commune and Ken Silverstein impersonating a lobbyist for Turkmenistan to Kristoffer Garin shopping for brides in the Ukraine and Jake Silverstein competing for the Famous Poets Society’s dubious prizes, these writers have ventured into worlds both seemingly familiar and entirely unknown and narrated the truth of those experiences in a unique and illuminating way. |
