## retained text



```
The Castle by Jon Ronson.
Ronson’s reportage on modern masculinity is catalyzed by a series of unsettling texts from his son’s visit to the castle of a steel heir named Chris Mark, who is collecting “princesses” — women he finds on dating apps — in his home.
Ronson charts the interconnectedness of AI, social media, exploitation, and the “male loneliness epidemic” in what The Guardian called “a provocative and disturbing look at unmoored men in distress.” Buy The Castle from your local bookstore.
