Why read it?
1 author picked Biography of X as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Biography of X is a fictitious biography of an artist/singer/producer/agitator, ostensibly written by her wife in pursuit of objective truth about X in spite of her lifetime of constructing different personas.
It’s raw and painfully human, while also being meticulous in its worldbuilding. The fact that it’s also one of the most plausible alternative history novels and one of the best meta-fictional novels I’ve ever read is the icing on the cake.
I can’t convey how much I loved it.
