Über diesen Titel

Robert is a struggling writer living in Berlin with his wife and two young daughters. One night he meets Patrick, an enigmatic stranger with a sensational story to tell: a ghostwriter for a Russian oligarch - recently found hanged - who is now being followed. But is he really in danger? Patrick's life strikes Robert as a fabrication, but one that comes to obsess him. He decides to use the other man, and his story.... As his association with Patrick hurtles towards tragedy, Robert must decide: are actual events the only things that give a story life, and are some stories too dangerous to tell? 

An elegant and atmospheric twist on the cat-and-mouse narrative, A Lonely Man is a novel of shadows, of the search for identity and the elastic nature of truth.

Kritikerstimmen

"A remarkable debut; an accomplished and intricately plotted." (Jon McGregor)

"A Lonely Man is a delicate snare of a novel." (Brandon Taylor)

"A thrilling, unnerving novel. a page-turner with exacting syntax and emotional heft." (Catherine Lacey)

The producer should have had a phonetics coach. The German was bad even for a Brit or an American who lives in these places. I know because I live on the street most of the books takes place at. It was bad for my ears and I’m not German.

The German was pretty awful!
