Description
Vanessa Salomon's life is a complex web of privilege and resentment. Her twin sister's fame as a movie star only adds to her feelings of inadequacy. Recently, the loss of a loved one has left her reeling. As she delves into translating an experimental thriller by a deceased author, she's offered a more prominent gig - translating the latest book by a renowned French writer. This new project sets off a chain reaction, drawing Vanessa into a literary underworld of deceit and manipulation. With its unique blend of satire and mysticism, Bad Eminence is a thought-provoking exploration of the darker side of celebrity culture and the power of language. Featuring "sponsored content" and a cameo from actress Juno Temple, this novel is a jarring commentary on our digital age, where reality and fiction blur.
