Reseña del libro "The Hoax: [A Perfect Hoax] (en Inglés)"

2017 Reprint of 1930 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition software. Influenced by the rise of the science of psychology and the turmoil of the early 20th century, The Hoax [also translated as A Perfect Hoax] is an ironic and affectionate story of illusion, self-deception, and impracticality in a practical world. Mario Samigli is in his seventies; he has all but given up his cherished aspirations as a writer and smiles at the world through his one remaining literary outlet--fables. When a travelling salesman with a taste for practical jokes persuades him that a Viennese publishing company wants to translate his early failed novel, Mario is caught in a fantasy of success and fame, and neglects his beloved invalid brother. The Hoax follows the elaborate prank as it escalates, forcing Mario blindly down a road that can only lead to disappointment.
