ISBN:  9780771072512 (pbk.) Description:  ix, 260 p. ; 21 cm. Contents:  Ghosting -- The invention of Ronald Pinn -- The Satoshi affair. Summary:  "From the author of The Illuminations, a work of non-fiction by one of the most important writers of his generation. Julian Assange, a man who, five years ago, seemed to herald a new, enlightened form of democracy - until, that is, the apparent heroism of WikiLeaks became compromised by his hubris and paranoia. Satoshi Nakamoto, another man who radically reshaped the business of information and secrecy on a global scale. He is known as the elusive inventor of Bitcoin, but who is the real Satoshi - a lone wolf or a collective of individuals with the talent to reimagine the financial wheel? And Ronald Pinn, a man who does not exist at all, except in the furthest, darkest reaches of O'Hagan's internet use. Driven by an interest in the ease with which it is possible to create an identity in an online world, O'Hagan journeys into the dark web where everything - sex, drugs, guns- - is for sale. The Secret Life is about these elusive individuals, written in three individual yet deeply connected essays. A book about the porousness between genius and madness, between fact and fiction. It is about nothing less than modern personality in the digital age. Andrew O'Hagan is is the author of Our Fathers, Be Near Me, and The Illuminations. He lives in London"--Provided by publisher.
