Also, there's no commentary about anything that happened after the castaways left the island. There are LOOOOOOOOOOONG descriptions some of the travails of the crew and the stormy conditions of the sea, and extremely little new light is shed on the actual contestants of the show. But Mark Burnett seems to be under the impression that he's writing a novel - and "The Great Gatsby" at that. What a disappointment! As a HUGE fan of the show, I couldn't wait to read this. Without putting too much spit on the pitch, I think that the show transcended entertainment and took the reader into the realm of literary drama because of the insight it offered the viewer into the human complexities of such a situation. In hindsight the game's outcome was known before the first Challenge, if only I'd been as good an observer as Burnett. Had I not read his book I would not have appreciated the extraordinary drama that took place-the drama of Pagong and their immaturity in regard to virtually all aspects of the establishment of a viable community and that failure led ultimately to their destruction. It was as if the show that I viewed every week was simply the building that was visible above the ground but the complexity of the foundations that allowed the structure to stand were totally hidden until they were pointed out and examined by Burnett. I was impressed with these psychological threads that he teased out of life on the island to the viewer these were seemingly random acts made by the island participants. Burnett wrote, however, a far more substantive story of the psychological factors that motivated the participants.

I didn't expect Burnett's book to be so cerebral: I expected a very long journalistic expose of "the hidden secrets of life on the island".
