New Escapologist magazine offers exit strategies for people working in soulless offices and other demeaning day jobs. We celebrate the ‘flight’ bit of the ‘fight or flight’ quandary and take the stance that running away can be noble. Each issue is a compendium of funny and integral essays and anecdotes. We promote freedom, Anarchy and the Absurd. ‘Escape’ is the theme for the series, but each issue has its own sub-theme. Issue Three is the Practicalities Issue.
Issues 1-4. If you’re dedicated to Anarchy, Absurdity and to being an Escapologist, a four-issue subscription is the best way to show it. We’ll send Issues One and Two immediately and Issues Three and Four upon their release. You’ll also receive a startlingly cool free gift. £20.
