The Fraud by David Rakoff

The Fraud by David Rakoff

At the heart of Anita Brookner's new novel lies a double mystery: What has happened to Anna Durrant, a solitary woman of a certain age who has disappeared from her London flat? And why has it taken four months for anyone to notice?
As Brookner reconstructs Anna's life and character through the eyes of her acquaintances, she gives us a witty yet ultimately devastating study of self-annihilating virtue while exposing the social, fiscal, and moral frauds that are the underpinnings of terrifying rectitude.

David Rakoff was the author of the New York Times best-selling books Fraud, Don't Get Too Comfortable, and Half Empty. He was a regular writer to This American Life and was a two-time winner of the Lambda Literary Award and the Thurber Prize for American Humor. He died in August 2012, just after finishing this work, at the age of 47.
