À propos de cet audio

Best-selling author Arthur Phillips won critical acclaim for his novels Prague and The Egyptologist, and Publishers Weekly called him a “master manipulator” for his ability to write fiction spun out of imagination and illusion.

In The Tragedy of Arthur, Phillips tells the (mostly) true story of being asked to write the introduction to a lost Shakespeare play entitled The Most Excellent and Tragical Historie of Arthur, King of Britain. But Phillips knows the play - supposedly found in a safety deposit box in America - is a fake.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"[T]he novelist’s art is a cunning ability to lure the reader into treating counterfeit bills as if they were current. And this particular novel - a fictional memoir posing as a fraudulent introduction to a forged play - is a spectacular instance of the confidence game. It is a tribute to Arthur Phillips’s singular skill that his work leaves the reader not with resentment at having been tricked but rather with gratitude for the gift of feigned wonder." (The New York Times Book Review)
"[Phillips] best trick is to balance a moving story of familial and romantic love on a deliberately unsteady fictional edifice… [an] exuberant chimera of a novel. Boldly he includes the full five-act play itself, a virtuosic counterfeit." (The New Yorker)
"A literary treasure… shows off a writer at the top of his game." (The Washington Post Book Review)
