Fake Accounts
Lauren OylerA woman in a post-election tailspin
discovers that her boyfriend is an anonymous online conspiracy theorist
in this provocative and subversive debut novel that examines social
media, sex, feminism, and fiction, the connection they’ve all promised,
and the lies they help us tell.
On the eve of Donald
Trump’s inauguration, a young woman snoops through her boyfriend’s phone
and makes a startling discovery: he’s an anonymous internet conspiracy
theorist, and a popular one at that. Already fluent in internet fakery,
irony, and outrage, she’s not exactly shocked by the revelation.
Actually, she’s relieved–he was always a little distant–and she plots to
end their floundering relationship while on a trip to the Women’s March
in DC. But this is only the first in a series of bizarre twists that
expose a world whose truths are shaped by online lies.
Suddenly
left with no reason to stay in New York and increasingly alienated from
her friends and colleagues, our unnamed narrator flees to Berlin,
embarking on her own cycles of manipulation in the deceptive spaces of
her daily life, from dating apps to expat meetups, open-plan offices to
bureaucratic waiting rooms. She begins to think she can’t trust
anyone–shouldn’t the feeling be mutual?
Narrated with seductive confidence and subversive wit, Fake Accounts
challenges the way current conversations about the self and community,
delusions and gaslighting, and fiction and reality play out in the
internet age.
