Summary
Richard Flanagan: Pvo lice
Kif Kehlmann, a penniless young writer, receives a phone call in the middle of the night from the notorious conman Siegfried Ziggy Heidl, who is awaiting trial for defrauding banks for seven hundred million dollars. Heidl has a proposal: Kehlmann will receive ten thousand dollars if, in six weeks, he writes his memoirs as a shadow writer. Based on a story from the author's life, alternately humorous, suspenseful and creepy, the novel Prvo lice is Flanagan's tour de force, a rarely powerful book about a time when fact is hard to distinguish from fiction, and freedom is never easier to replace with a false idea of progress. "Like most autobiographical works, First Face is a book about nostalgia for that lost time when we could still be taken aback by obvious lies, when we used the word ``evil'' to describe them and were afraid of what might happen to us if we accepted them." — The New York Times Book Review "In an age when our truths are twisted, corrupted or ignored, we need Flanagan's artistic reminder of the damage caused by our unwillingness to say what really happened." — The Washington Post "Enigmatic and enchanting." — The New Yorker
