Idol

Opis produktu:

Follow your heart and speak your truth.

For Samantha Millers young fans - her girls - shes everything they want to be. Shes an oracle, telling them how to live their lives, how to be happy, how to find and honour their truth.

And her career is booming: shes just hit three million followers, her new book Chaste has gone straight to the top of the bestseller lists and shes appearing at sell-out events.

Determined to speak her truth and bare all to her adoring fans, shes written an essay about her sexual awakening as a teenager, with her female best friend, Lisa. Shes never told a soul but now shes telling the world. The essay goes viral.

But then - years since they last spoke - Lisa gets in touch to say that she doesnt remember it that way at all. Her memory of that night is far darker. Its Sams word against Lisas - so who gets to tell the story? Whose truth is really a lie?

You put yourself on that pedestal, Samantha. You only have yourself to blame.

Riveting, compulsive and bold, IDOL interrogates our relationship with our heroes and explores the world of online influencers, asking how well we can ever really know those whose carefully curated profiles we follow online. And it asks us to consider how two memories of the same event can differ, and how effortlessly we choose which stories to believe.
