THE CONFABULIST

Sinopsis de THE CONFABULIST

"The whole world knows me as the man who killed Harry Houdini, the most famous person on the planet. But there is a secret that no one knows, save for myself and one other person who likely died long ago...The Confabulist is the spellbinding story of Harry Houdini - his life, his loves, his feats of daring and his sudden death - and misfit Martin Strauss, a man whose fate seems to be inextricably bound to the showman's in calamitous ways. It is a brilliant novel about fame and ambition, reality and illusion, and the ways that love, grief and imagination can alter what we perceive and what we believe."
