Raised in Captivity: Fictional Nonfiction

Raised in Captivity: Fictional Nonfiction by Chuck Klosterman

These are random stories that almost appear true, but are not quite. There is a puma in a first class bathroom. There is a coach that has no experience in football, yet takes over a team. They have one play they run on offense. They get totally beat down in their first game. Things get a little better with each following game until they are totally beating other teams. The players go on to greatness. Somebody struggles when their significant other is diagnosed as "fake woke". Somebody tries to hire a hitman to take out their spouse. The hitman proposes a 4 year plan that would drive him to suicide. There are a number of other stories with a bit of a macabre twist or a "wait is this real?" plausibility?
