Endgame: The Calling

WHO IS JAMES FREY AND WHY IS HE GIVING YOU $50,000? He's "the bad boy of American letters" according to The Guardian. Remember the very public dressing-down by Oprah Winfrey over his first book, A Million Little Pieces, in which he passed off fiction as memoir? He's back in the headlines with Endgame, a new and exciting project blending fiction and reality in a way it's hardly been done before. Frey has also been called "one of the finest and most important writers to have emerged in recent years." Wherever Frey goes, controversy is bound to follow. When he said "I don't care much about truth" he was written off by the literary establishment but he paid for it and it set him free. His fans laud him for his candor. I Am Number 4 was a success and ALA Booklist says Endgame is "A unique dystopian adventure with anchors to the real world... set to become a cultural phenomenon." Read the book, follow the clues, solve the puzzle, win the $500,000 prize that is on display at Caesar's Palace, Las Vegas. WHO IS JAMES FREY? FIND OUT FOR YOURSELF! Meet him at Kepler's on Saturday, October 11, at 6:00 p.m., and see for yourself. He'll be in conversation with John Hanke, VP of Google's Niantic Labs, who is developing a location-based augmented reality game that will bring the Endgame books to life in the real world. Please RSVP on Facebook HERE.

James Frey debat The Final Testament of the Holy Bible.

James Frey is not like other writers. This book is not like other books. This event will not be like other events. Frey’s new book, The Final Testament of the Holy Bible, is the story of Ben Zion Avrohom, also known as the Messiah. Told by his friends and family, in the manner of the gospels, the book asks: How would a man like Jesus be perceived if he appeared today? What would he preach and believe? And how would society react? The book, which is embargoed until April 12th, is already being denounced as blasphemous and obscene. Come and meet James Frey, author of A Million Little Pieces, talking about his highly controversial new book for the first time anywhere in the world. Kate Muir is arts critic for The Times and the author of LEFT BANK and WEST COAST. We would love to see you here, but seating is very limited so please book early to avoid disappointment. Tickets are £5 and include wine. Call or email the bookshop on 0207 2291010, bookshop@lutyensrubinstein.co.uk to reserve your tickets or email anna@lutyensrubinstein.co.uk for more information.
