'''Leaving Mundania ''' is a narrative nonfiction book about larp written by American journalist [[Lizzie Stark]]. The work, researched over the course of three years, examines larp in the US and Nordic countries from a variety of perspectives, mixing in-depth profiles of larpers with scenic accounts of campaigns and other events, and historical research.
While reporting for the book, Stark interviewed over one hundred larpers, attended a campaign boffer larp called Knight Realms for 18 months, ran her own Cthulhu Live game, uncovered similarities between modern larp and Elizabethan pageantry, watched the US military larp, and attended [[Knutepunkt]] 2011 in Denmark.
