THE IMPOSTERS - TOM RACHMAN KARTONIERT (TB)

For admirers of Tom Rachman's work  particularly The Imperfectionists  this is a return to the
formal ingenuity and technique that he exhibited so flamboyantly in his bestselling debut  The
Imposters is told in nine chapters  each of which feature characters who flit in and out of
each others' stories  united by their connection with an austere and opinionated and unread
Dutch writer  Dora  They exist either through close relationships  like her lovers  children
and siblings or more tangentially  removal men  couriers and delivery drivers  brought into her
orbit during lockdown  In between chapters is the commentary of the author  Tom Rachman  a
novelist who no longer knows if there is any point to his struggles to write but who will  at
the close of each such section will reveal the beginning of the next chapter  He becomes a kind
of auto -fictional Scheherazade  greeting each dawn with a new story  a new riff on the themes
that have become our obsessions in the post-truth pandemic years of Covid-19
