Review"My Life as a Fake_ _is so confidently brilliant, so economical yet lively in its writing, so tightly fitted and continuously startling." –John Updike, The New Yorker “Ingenious . . . Carey is as diabolical as the hoaxes that his book includes.” — The New York Times "Brisk, relentlessly prankish. . . .
