Little does he realise that this is the beginning of an extraordinary friendship and even more fruitful business partnership.

Together, they create a comic strip called 'The Escapist', its superhero a Nazi-busting saviour who liberates the oppressed around the world. 'The Escapist' makes their fortune, but Joe can think of only one thing: how can he effect a real-life escape and free his family from the tyranny of Hitler?Michael Chabon's exceptional novel is a thrilling tightrope walk between high comedy and bitter tragedy.
