... This story began on the outskirts of civilization shortly after the war as a harmless joke. The mediocre poet Christopher Chubb decided to prove to the stagnant Australian society that poetry is alive - and created Bob McCorkle, a bicycle mechanic, an intellectual and the author of brilliant poetry, the likes of which have never yet been known in world culture. A terrible scandal occurred - the editor who published them went on trial for insulting morality and met a mysterious and undeservedly cruel death. But the mask turned out to be tenacious: at the trial, a man who should not have been there stood up and declared that Bob McCorkle was him. Poetry has indeed come to life - to take revenge on its creator.
And those who follow in the footsteps of the new Frankenstein, even in a nightmare, cannot imagine how cruel this revenge will be. And the reader will face sleepless nights and attempts to unravel the web of the most inventive hoax of literature of the 20th century.
The novel by two-time Booker Prize winner Peter Carey “My Life is a Fake” is for the first time in Russian.
