| book description |
The hilarious and headline-stealing memoir from Kari Ferrell, AKA the 'Hipster Grifter', perfect for fans of Inventing Anna, Tinder Swindler and Cat Marnell's How to Murder Your Life 'Emphatically audacious, hysterical and compelling. Read this memoir!' CAT MARNELL Before Anna Delvey, before the Tinder Swindler, there was Kari Ferrell. Adopted at a young age by a Mormon family in Utah, Kari struggled with questions of self-worth and identity as one of the few Asian Americans in her insulated community, leading her to run with the 'bad crowd' in an effort to fit in. Stealing from shops soon turned into picking up men (and picking their pockets), and before she knew it, Kari had graduated from petty theft to Utah's most wanted list. Though Kari was able to escape her hometown, she couldn't outrun her new moniker: the Hipster Grifter. New York City had found its newest celebrity - just as Kari found herself in a heap of trouble. Jail time, riots, bad cheques and an explosion of internet infamy and fetishisation put her name in the spotlight. Beyond the gossip and the headlines, there's a side to Kari the media never saw - until now. By turns rollicking and irreverent, warm and compassionate, You'll Never Believe Me tells Kari's story for the first time. A heartfelt narrative of redemption and reconciliation as she eventually dedicates her life to activism, social justice and setting the record straight, Kari is a fresh, hilarious new voice with a nostalgic, uplifting and at times unbelievable tale that grapples with truth, why we lie, and what it means when our pasts don't paint the whole picture.
