Richard Osman Performative Book explores the imagined creative impulses behind The Impossible Fortune-a fictional, character-rich mystery that traces the interwoven lives of seven individuals connected by a single vanished inheritance. With signature wit and structural elegance reminiscent of classic whodunits, The Impossible Fortune unfolds in layers of personality, motive, and moral ambiguity.
In this performative and literary companion, Penthouse Booktrust applies a prosopographical lens to examine how fictional character networks reflect deeper truths about social roles, memory, and intention. Just as Osman's real-world works often balance humor with suspense, this book considers how "performance" shapes authorship, identity, and narrative construction in a postmodern publishing landscape.
