Discuss The Survivalists by Kashana Cauley. This razor-sharp and darkly funny debut about a high-powered lawyer whose carefully planned life is upended when she moves in with her boyfriend and his survivalist roommates. Set in Brooklyn, the novel blends satire and social commentary as it explores ambition, fear, and the illusion of control in uncertain times. A provocative read that raises questions about success, security, and what it really means to survive.
