Deceptively Real

Published by Diogenes as Täuschend echt
Original Title: Täuschend echt

A copywriter loses everything in one go: love, money, and his career. But with the help of artificial intelligence, he manages to get back on his feet. The latest technology helps him write a book that generates considerable attention, because it supposedly tells the ›story of a genuine fate‹. Only one woman knows this isn’t true: the former lover of the now-celebrated author, who once took everything from him.

A smart, engaging mind game about authorship in the age of AI, and a gripping read on a highly topical theme.
