Summary

Stephen Glass: The Fabulist

Who is Stephen Glass and what happened to him? Stephen Glass is a journalist who lied (and not a little), got fired, and after all wrote a book about it. Why is that important? Because it is based on a true story, and with it, in an unexpectedly good - read effective, fun and funny - way, a story about journalism, journalistic ethics and the gray zone between facts and lies that we encounter every day on the pages of the daily and weekly press is added. Trying to avoid the consequences of the scandal he caused as a newspaper reporter, and he invented almost everything he published, Glass conveys to us experiences even more unusual than his lies, and the characters we encounter seem to have fallen out of a comedy of situations. While running away from other journalists who are chasing him in order to better scold a fellow liar, Stephen Glass tries to understand himself and his actions, grasps at every straw and, miraculously, sometimes manages to swim out. And what did we get in the end? A novel-testimony that can tell us a lot not only about journalism but also about family, friendship, love, about the impossible that eventually comes true, about reality and imagination - a truly provocative combination. So provocative that it served as a template for the film version under the title False Glass.
