The Positive People Podcast

Nicolai Mork reads his novel, The Positive People. Set in Hollywood and in the conference rooms of an elite business consulting firm, and explaining how the author went from advising the CEOs of major American Corporations to languishing in solitary confinement, The Positive People explores essential questions about religious freedom and the American Dream, about what happens when we tolerate extreme intolerance, about how we connect with other people, and about how we preserve what is essential in us when faced with the most extreme repression.

Equal parts literary autobiography and tawdry spy thriller, The Positive People conveys what the author learned as his career, relationships, and financial prosperity were destroyed by organized crime under the banner of religion, without sacrificing any of the page-turning, compulsive entertainment of pulp fiction. The Positive People answers the specific question: “What happens when a cult with thousands of members and billions of dollars declares war on a workaholic who doesn’t know they exist?” and the more general question: "How do we navigate a world where everyone is trying to cast us in their play?"

Sexy, smart, and funny, The Positive People depicts a businessman whose life is plunged into a rabbit hole of swirling madness, where every element is controlled by fanatics with a fatwa against him, and he must make sense of the insanity to survive. Seduced by femme fatales and isolated by hackers, can Bill overcome his own weaknesses, ignore the sympathy he feels for the victim-perpetrators, and reclaim his life?
