In Melbourne in the late 1940s, a young conservative poet named Christopher Chubb decides to teach his country a lesson about pretension and authenticity. But over the ensuing years his audacious act of literary ventriloquism takes on a much darker resonance. Having fled Melbourne for the seedy, sweaty streets of Kuala Lumpur, Chubb finds himself, just as Frankenstein was, haunted and pursued by his own creation.
Twice winner of the Booker Prize, Peter Carey's most recent novel Parrot and Olivier in America was described by the New Yorker as 'a comic masterpiece' and by the Sunday Times as 'an exhilarating tour-de-force'. It was shortlisted for both the Man Booker Prize and a National Book Award in 2010.

Zustand: Como nuevo. : En Melbourne, a finales de la década de 1940, un joven poeta australiano conservador llamado Christopher Chubb decide dar una lección a su país sobre la pretensión y la autenticidad. Eligiendo como objetivo la más vanguardista de las revistas literarias, presenta para su publicación toda la obra de un tal Bob McCorkle, un poeta de clase trabajadora de crudo poder y franqueza sexual, convenientemente muerto a los veinticuatro años y producto enteramente de la imaginación de Chubb. La revista no solo cae en el engaño, sino que las autoridades locales también demandan a su editor por publicar obscenidades. En el juicio, alguien que se parece asombrosamente a la fotografía falsificada del inventado McCorkle, se pone de pie. En este momento, un horrorizado Chubb se enfrenta al ser malévolo que él mismo ha fabricado.
