NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE STARRING JULIETTE BINOCHE This psychological thriller dissects online relationships, offering a stunning indictment of the way society perceives women in contrast to men when age comes into play. This is the story of Claire Millecam, a forty-eight-year-old teacher and divorcée who creates a fake social media profile to keep tabs on Joe, her occasional, elusive, and inconstant lover. Under the false identity of Claire Antunes, a young and beautiful twenty-four-year-old, she starts a correspondence with Chris-pseudonym KissChris-which soon turns into an Internet love affair. A Dangerous Liaisons for our times, Who You Think I Am exposes the disconnect between fantasy and

reality. Social media allows us to put ourselves on display, to indulge in secrets, but above all to lie, to recreate a life, to become our own fiction-magnifying and manipulating the double standards to which older women are held when they refuse to give up on desire. Simultaneously sensual, intellectually stimulating, and utterly relevant, this page-turner will stick in your mind long after reading.
