WAYS TO LIVE FOREVER, published in 2008 to international acclaim and translated into 20 languages, is therilliant debut of an extraordinarily talented young writer., Ross King's delightful, Rabelaisian novel recounts the adventures of young George Cautley, an aspiring artist who, as he makes his way through London's high society, finds that nothing is as it seems and everyone wears a disguise. Moving from masquerade balls in London to the magnificent and mysterious opera houses of Venice, Cautley is drawn into a web of intrigue and murder spun by the seductive and tempestuous Lady Beauclair.
