In the Pulitzer Prize winning author! In the beginning of this edgy and ambitiously multilayered book - the National Book Prize Finalist - a fashion model named Charlotte Swenson emerges from a vehicle accident in her Illinois hometown with her face so badly shattered that it takes 80 titanium screws to reassemble it. She returns to NY still beautiful but oddly unrecognizable, a online stranger on the globe she once very easily occupied. Along with the surreal authority of any David Lynch, Jennifer Egan threads Charlotte's narrative with those of other casualties of our infatuation with the image. There's a deceptively basic teenage girl embarking on a dangerous top secret life, an alcoholic private attention, and an enigmatic stranger who changes names and accents as he prepares an apocalyptic blow against American world. As these narratives inexorably converge, Look at Me becomes a coolly mesmerizing intellectual thriller of personal information and imposture.
