Krátky popis
Two unlikely friends hatch an extraordinary scheme to expose the
theatre world in this wildly entertaining and sharply observed
debut novel exploring perception, redemption, and how success
shapes us all.Meet Relebogile Naledi Mpho Moruakgomo. Or, for
short, Eddie: an aspiring playwright who dreams of making it big in
London's theatre world. But after repeated rejections from white
talent agents, Eddie suspects her non-white sounding name might be
the problem.Enter Hugo Lawrence Smith: good looking,
well-connected, charismatic and . . . very white. Stifled by his
law degree and looking for a way out of the corporate world, he
finds a kindred spirit in Eddie after a chance encounter at a
cafe.Together they devise a plan, one which will see Eddie's play
on stage and Hugo's name in lights. They send out her script under
his name and vow to keep the play's origins a secret until it
reaches critical levels of success. Then they can expose the
theatre world for its racism and hollow clout-chasing. But as their
plan spins wildly out of control, Eddie and Hugo find themselves
wondering if their reputations, and their friendship, can survive.
