My life as a Fake by Peter Carey was not a bad story, it was interesting enough but not something I would recommend. As the old saying goes, sometimes you have to read a lot of frogs before your find your prince.
This story was simply a frog. Not good, and not bad. Just a frog.
Basically it tells the story of a man who invented an author and the repercussions of that act. The story becomes further intriguing when the phony author becomes a real flesh and blood person who feels like his life has been stolen from him. Did the poet really exist or was he truly a figment of a failed authors imagination? This tale sets out to uncover the truths behind the legendary events.
