“Book Descriptions: Ezra Maas is dead. The famously reclusive artist vanished without a trace seven years ago while working on his final masterpiece, but his body was never found. While the Maas Foundation prepares to announce his death, journalist Daniel James finds himself hired to write the untold story of the artist's life - but this is no ordinary book. The deeper James delves into the myth of Ezra Maas, the more he is drawn into a nightmarish world of fractured identities and sinister doubles.
A chilling literary labyrinth, The Unauthorised Biography of Ezra Maas blends postmodern noir with artworks, photographs, newspaper clippings, original documents, biography, letters, phone transcripts, and emails to create a book like no other before it.
“With The Unauthorised Biography of Ezra Maas, Daniel James has created a labyrinthine metafictional headf*ck that spills well beyond the confines of its own pages. It is by turns thought-provoking, original and infuriating, and very possibly the work of a madman.”
— Graeme Macrae Burnet, author of Booker-shortlisted His Bloody Project
"A brilliant, genre-defying debut novel from a major new talent.. a haunting and enigmatic noir and a stylish, multi-layered biography.. a future classic."
- Bryan Talbot, Eisner Award-Winning writer and artist (Grandville, The Tale Of One Bad Rat, Alice In Sunderland)” DRIVE
