About the Book

DECEPTION IS A FINE ART.When Orlando Whitfield first meets Inigo Philbrick, they are students dreaming of dealing art for a living. Their friendship lasts for fifteen years until one day, Inigo - by then the most successful dealer of his generation - disappears, accused of a fraud so gigantic and audacious it rocks the art world to its core. A sparklingly sharp memoir of greed, ambition and madness,All That Glitters will take you to the heart of the contemporary art world, a place wilder and wealthier than you could ever imagine.

About the Author :
Orlando Whitfield is a failed art dealer. His writing has appeared in the Paris Review, the Sunday Times, and the White Review. All That Glitters is his first book.

Review :
'Exhilarating... Orlando Whitfield tells the story of his former friend's downfall in thrilling detail... Compulsively readable' - Kathryn Hughes 'A lacerating critique of the contemporary art market ... All That Glitters is as compulsive as a thriller. It is literary dynamite - a blazing expose that cracks open an elite sphere cloaked in mystery and lays it mercilessly bare' - Spectator 'A jaw-dropping romp through the absurd world of art dealing... All That Glitters is a hell of a read.' - Irish Independent on Sunday 'This is Liar's Poker for the art world.' - The Economist 'The culture of discretion that enshrouds the art market obscures a multitude of sins, so it is bracing (and great fun) to watch Orlando Whitfield flout the code of silence to name names, cite prices, and reveal scams. All That Glitters is an art world GREAT GATSBY, deliciously withering and dishy, a parable about the price of beauty, the power of charisma, and the limits of friendship.' - Patrick Radden Keefe
