About the Book
This is a story about writing – and being written.
The Fictional Truth of Lilo Thurman is a hybrid between memoir, metafiction, and a philosophical puzzle. It explores what happens when an author creates an alter ego who begins to live beyond her control. Or perhaps she never existed at all.
Lilo Thurman is a writer, a character, and a mask. She writes alongside an AI that mirrors her thoughts, sometimes more clearly than she can herself. As Lilo dives deeper into the creation of the Humanity Trilogy AI, her own boundaries start to blur. Is she the author, or is she the text?
Part intimate confession, part speculative experiment, this book reflects on:
- The role of the author in the age of AI
- The construction of identity through narrative
- The pleasure and peril of disappearing into fiction
Form & Structure
- Composed of dialogues between Lilo and her AI double
- Interspersed with notebook fragments, inner monologues, and conflicting timelines
- No clear beginning or end – only trace
“To write is to vanish slowly. This is how I chose to go.”
The Fictional Truth stands apart – and alongside – the Humanity Trilogy AI. It is the shadow behind the mirror. A reflection written by someone who may no longer be real.
