#1 bestseller in Canada: a debut novel-in-stories that follows one
woman's life from age 16 to 60, and what happens when certain
celebrities start turning up in her private life. What if some of
the artists we feel as if we know--Meryl Streep, Neil Young, Bill
Murray--turned up in the course of our daily lives? This is what
happens to Rose McEwan, an ordinary woman who keeps having strange
encounters with famous people. In this engrossing, original
novel-in-stories, we follow her life from age 17, when she takes a
summer writing course led by a young John Updike, through her first
heartbreak (witnessed by Joni Mitchell) on the island of Crete,
through her marriage, divorce, and a canoe trip with Taylor Swift,
Leonard Cohen and Karl Ove Knausgaard. (Yes, read on.) With wit and
insight, Marni Jackson takes a world obsessed with celebrity and
turns it on its head. In Don't I Know You?, she shows us how fame
is just another form of fiction, and how, in the end, the daily
dramas of an ordinary woman's life can be as captivating and
poignant as any luminary tell-all.
