My Year As A Fraud
€ 21.25
ISBN: 9781529155754
THE INSTANT SWEDISH CULT CLASSIC
'Clever, funny and tender'
FREDRIK BACKMAN, bestselling author of My Friends and A Man Called Ove
'A warm and funny tale about betrayal, loneliness and sorrow, but above all the desire to belong'
LISA RIDZEN, bestselling author of When the Cranes Fly South
There's no health guru in Sweden better than Cassi. Couple's therapy? Puppy yoga? Full moon rituals? She's got everyone in the remote village of Backen covered. The locals don't really know who Cassi is or how she managed to turn a derelict cottage into a successful self help retreat, but one thing is clear: they're all willing to pay good money for her services.
There's only one problem: Cassi is a fraud. A great one at that, who has concealed her true self - a jobless, depressed alcoholic - and gotten rich in the process. But can a life based on a lie really last? And will her new friends accept her for who she really is when her secrets eventually come to the surface?
My Year As A Fraud is a heart-warming, hilarious and healing translated debut novel about hitting rock bottom and finding your way back from an unmissable new voice in Swedish fiction.
Reader reviews
***** 'This brilliantly translated debut is a warm, witty, and surprisingly tender novel that expertly blends feel-good charm with darker themes of loneliness and self-deception.'
***** 'A heart-warming story about hitting rock bottom, finding unexpected community, and the bittersweet possibility of new beginnings. A compelling read for those who appreciate both humour and emotional depth.'
***** 'This book gave me all the feels! It goes to show that everyone is going through something.'
