{"product_id":"2940170557127","title":"My Life as a Fake","description":"Fiendishly devious and addictively readable, Peter Carey¿s My Life as a Fake is a moral labyrinth constructed around the uneasy relationship between literature and lying. In steamy, fetid Kuala Lumpur in 1972, Sarah Wode-Douglass, the editor of a London poetry journal, meets a mysterious Australian named Christopher Chubb. Chubb is a despised literary hoaxer, carting around a manuscript likely filled with deceit. But in this dubious manuscript Sarah recognizes a work of real genius. But whose genius? As Sarah tries to secure the manuscript, Chubb draws her into a fantastic story of imposture, murder, kidnapping, and exile¿a story that couldn¿t be true unless its teller were mad. My Life as a Fake is Carey at his most audacious and entertaining.","brand":"Recorded Books, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47099973796080,"sku":"2940170557127","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940170557127_p0.jpg?v=1763712519","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940170557127","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
