LONGLISTED FOR THE MAN BOOKER PRIZE 2014 The artist Harriet Burden,
furious at the lack of attention paid her by the New York art
world, conducts an experiment: she hides her identity behind three
male fronts in a series of exhibitions. Their success seems to
prove her point, but there's a sting in the tail - when she unmasks
herself, not everyone believes her. Then her last collaborator
meets a bizarre end. In this mesmerising tour de force, Burden's
story emerges after her death through a variety of sources,
including her (not entirely reliable) journals and the testimonies
of her children, lover and a dear friend. Each account is
different, however, and the mysteries multiply.
