Summary "Compete or Die!" by Mark Rainsberg is a science fiction novel written in the mid-20th century. It explores the concept of a highly competitive society where personal worth is determined by one's ability to "compete," often at the expense of familial and emotional connections. The story revolves around Bart Sponsor, a once successful competitor who becomes a fugitive after his son Freddie is labeled as "non-competitive" by the authorities, leading to an explosive confrontation over the educational system's brutal stance on competition. The narrative follows Bart's emotional turmoil and desperate actions as he navigates a dystopian world that values competition above all else. After discovering that his son is in danger of being taken away by the school for not adhering to the competitive societal norms, Bart is driven to extreme measures to protect his family. As he and his wife Celia struggle against the oppressive system, they face intense challenges that highlight the costs of a society obsessed with competition. The climax culminates in a daring escape to a space colony, where Bart hopes to start anew, grappling with the implications of his past and the uncertain future that awaits his family.
