{"product_id":"life-of-m","title":"Life of M","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA little while ago, I told the actor M that I was thinking of writing her autobiography. She liked the idea.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShe's a good sport. Would you just make it up? she said. M is a film star, and one of the most recognisable faces of our time.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWith such fame, her life has the appearance of freedom: people are instantly obliging, spaces are altered to accommodate her, time can be rearranged. For her, it seems, the rules of reality have melted away. Now M has agreed to let a stranger write her biography.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTheir project will sprawl and expand: to the olive groves and holiday beaches where M spends her days; across hotel rooms, bourgeois facades, film sets; through endless modern cities. It is hard not to feel ugly next to M, hard not to feel insignificant. But what truths - about the very experience of living - might this proximity allow the writer to briefly capture? And what in the end will M make of their work? In Life of M, Rachel Cusk has again fashioned a new kind of literature.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003ePublished: UK, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003ePublisher: Faber \u0026amp; Faber\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003ePages: 192\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eLanguage: English\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eISBN: 9780571399802\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Rachel Cusk","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58268588015947,"sku":null,"price":24.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0978\/8755\/1819\/files\/9780571399802.jpg?v=1787822730","url":"https:\/\/desirelinesbookstore.com\/products\/life-of-m","provider":"desirelines books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
