The Con Artists by Luke Healy
THE OBSERVER GRAPHIC NOVEL OF THE MONTH, 'a beautifully observed masterpiece' 'I loved it- it's quiet and funny and anxious, most of all it's dreadfully human. Really great.' EVIE WYLD 'Joy, terror, good jokes, bad decisions, mystery moustaches - this book has them all, and more!' JOFF WINTERHART 'It is amazing. Really just perfect comic writing, in both senses.' STEPHEN COLLINS Love, friendship, fraud and the stories we tell... Frank only wanted three things this year- to perform stand-up comedy, go to therapy, and to keep his house plants alive. Then Giorgio got hit by a bus. As Frank moves in with Giorgio to help him recover, he begins to suspect that the perfect life Giorgio has been sharing online may be nothing more than a web of lies and scams. Finding himself unable to break free from his friend's complicated life, has Frank become Giorgio's unwitting accomplice?
