Klappentext zu „Flanagan, R: First Person “
Kif Kehlmann, a young, penniless writer, thinks he s finally caught a break when he s offered $10,000 to ghostwrite the memoir of Siegfried Ziggy Heidl, the notorious con man and corporate criminal. Ziggy is about to go to trial for defrauding banks for $700 million; they have six weeks to write the book.But Ziggy swiftly proves almost impossible to work with: evasive, contradictory, and easily distracted by his still-running business concerns which Kif worries may involve hiring hitmen from their shared office. Worse, Kif finds himself being pulled into an odd, hypnotic, and ever-closer orbit of all things Ziggy. As the deadline draws near, Kif becomes increasingly unsure if he is ghostwriting a memoir, or if Ziggy is rewriting him his life, his future, and the very nature of the truth.
By turns comic, compelling, and finally chilling, First Person is a haunting look at an age where fact is indistinguishable from fiction, and freedom is traded for a false idea of progress.
