*WINNER OF THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR NON-FICTION* *THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER* *A BOOK OF THE YEAR FOR THE TIMES, NEW YORK TIMES, GUARDIAN, OBSERVER, AND PROSPECT* 'If I had to name a single book that makes sense of these last few dark years, it would be this one' New York Times 'A deeply compelling read ... urgent and necessary' Evening Standard Naomi Klein, author of era-defining bestsellers, The Shock Doctrine, This Changes Everything and No Logo, is back with her most compulsive and personal book yet: a revelatory journey into the mirror world of our polarised age When Naomi Klein discovered that a woman who shared her first name, but had radically different, harmful views, was getting chronically mistaken for her, it seemed too ridiculous to take seriously. Then suddenly it wasn't. She started to find herself grappling with a distorted sense of reality, becoming obsessed with reading the threats on social media, the endlessly scrolling insults from the followers of her doppelganger. Why had her shadowy other gone down such an extreme path? Why was identity - all we have to meet the world - so unstable? To find out, Klein decided to follow her double into a bizarre, uncanny mirror world: one of conspiracy theories, anti-vaxxers and demagogue hucksters, where soft-focus wellness influencers make common cause with fire-breathing far right propagandists (all in the name of protecting 'the children'). In doing so, she lifts the lid on our own culture during this surreal moment in history, as we turn ourselves into polished virtual brands, publicly shame our enemies, watch as deep fakes proliferate and whole nations flip from democracy to something far more sinister. This is a book for our age and for all of us; a deadly serious dark comedy which invites us to view our reflections in the looking glass. It's for anyone who has lost hours down an internet rabbit hole, who wonders why our politics has become so fatally warped, and who wants a way out of our collective vertigo and back to fighting for what really matters.

"I've been raving about Naomi Klein's Doppelganger . . . I can't think of another text that better captures the berserk period we're living through." -Michelle Goldberg, The New York Times
"No recent book has better captured the absurdities and perils of the current moment in politics and culture and digital life than Doppelganger." -Vulture
"Dazzling and erudite . . . A deft and intricate investigation of online culture and political doubling . . . On her highbrow romp through this disturbing underworld, Klein's writing is clear, dynamic, ruthlessly honest, imbued with a rare integrity . . . If I had to name a single book that makes sense of these last few dark years, it would be this one." -Katie Roiphe, The New York Times Book Review (Editors' Choice)
"Doppelganger is an in-depth critique of what late-stage capitalism hath wrought. But it's also much more. Klein wields her polymathic expertise like a sword, slicing through the mirror world . . . There's a lot going on in Doppelganger, yet somehow Klein ties it all together into what we seem to be lacking as individuals: a cohesive whole. Doppelganger is both timely and timeless, a work in a grand tradition." -Chris Vognar, Los Angeles Times
"A compelling and far-reaching political detective story . . . Especially when it comes to the political fallout from the pandemic, no other book I know of has been this intellectually adventurous, this loopily personal, or this entertaining . . . As a writer and a theorist, Klein is particularly talented at knitting together the sweep of history and the banalities of the present. She's equally attuned to what doppelgängers can mean in a more transhistorical sense." -Laura Kipnis, The Nation
"Insightful . . . [Doppelganger is] the most introspective and whimsical of Klein's books to date, but it is also one of surprising insights, unexpected connections and great subtlety." -William Davies, The Guardian
"For nearly a quarter century, Klein's work has offered clarifying conceptual frameworks to understand the workings of power . . . [Klein] has a canny knack for capturing the zeitgeist, crystalizing ideas attuned to a given historical moment that serve to galvanize activists as much as scholars." -Nico Baumbach, Bookforum
"[Doppelganger is] a very, very good book. The premise . . . An ambitious, wide-ranging exploration of this very frightening moment of polycrisis and systemic failure . . .Klein has produced a first-rate literary work just as much as this is a superb philosophical and political tome . . . An essential read." -Cory Doctorow, Pluralistic
"This story of mistaken identity would on its own be gripping and revealing enough, both as a psychological study and for its explorations of the double in art and history, the disorienting effects of social media, and the queasy feeling of looking into a distorted mirror. But the larger subject of Doppelganger turns out to be a far more complex and consequential confusion . . . A uniquely astute account of the scrambled political formations that have come out of the pandemic." -Laura Marsh, The New Republic
"[Klein] is famous for the calm and poise with which she mainstreams a clear, solidly leftist political-economic critique . . . Doppelganger is both more literary and more personal than Klein's other books. She reads Freud and Poe and Ursula Le Guin and Dostoevsky . . . Klein's purpose is to use her doppelganger adventures as 'a narrow aperture' into [. . .] an alternative-media ecosystem." -Jenny Turner, London Review of Books
"[Doppelganger] stands alongside Klein's bestsellers No Logo and The Shock Doctrine as a crucial study of the ways that identity, image, ideology and economics become intertwined in the bewildering conditions of 21st-century consumer capitalism, and is in many ways a subtler and more challenging work than either of those." -Andrew O'Hehir, Salon
"[A] brave new book . . . By the end [of Doppelganger], I wondered if maybe Klein had come closer than ever to cracking the code that reveals what, really, is at the heart of our collective dysfunction . . . Klein brings her analytical prowess and keen wit to an exploration of the concept of doubles . . . [She] blends the personal and the political so seamlessly that it's hard to imagine they could ever be apart." -Bill Lueders, The Progressive
"[A] striking meditation . . . Klein's writing is perceptive and intriguingly personal . . . By articulating such an expansive view of the uncanny, Klein's mesmerizing narrative reflects the unique anxieties and modes of analysis that have come to dominate the online era. Like Klein's previous books, it's a definitive signpost of the times." -Publishers Weekly
"Klein's prose is tight and urgent . . . evoking both laughter and dismay and entrancingly matching the mounting frenzy of seeing your public self morph into someone else . . . [Klein's] comprehensive and nuanced treatments of these issues are valuable and compelling . . . A disarming and addictive call to solidarity." -Kirkus Reviews
"[Naomi Klein's] provocative thought exercise illuminates the myriad ways taken-for-granted balances can be upended and calls for heightened awareness of the dangers of identity erosion on both large and small scales." -Booklist (starred review)
"It seems ever more possible that our society might collapse under the sheer weight of nonsense and performance and crazy misinformation that overwhelm our infoworld. With her trademark clarity and perception, and with chemo-level doses of wit and common sense, Naomi Klein goes further than anyone has so far in helping us understand that buzzing and confounding mess, and to see some ways out. If ever a book was necessary, it's this one." -Bill McKibben, author of The Flag, the Cross, and the Station Wagon and Falter
"Naomi Klein's thoughtful and honest inquiry into the troubling duplication of her name and the distorted appropriation of her views becomes the occasion for an incisive account of how the Right has appropriated Left discourses, producing a nightmarish doubling that has plunged some of us into silence. Klein moves her reader toward the truer grounds of solidarity in these times, showing us how to resist the lures of Fascism with militant humility and connection, letting ourselves be upended by what we thought we could not bear to see so that we can face and build an affirmative future." -Judith Butler, author of Gender Trouble and The Force of Nonviolence
"Naomi Klein never disappoints. Doppelganger swirls through the bewildering ideas of the ultra-right that often appear as a distorted mirror of left struggle and strategy. With her always incisive analysis of the systems and structures linked to global capitalism, Klein now fiercely and brilliantly urges that our justice movements be prepared to follow the quest for new meaning into dimensions where we might least expect to find it: in injury and vulnerability." -Angela Y. Davis, author of Freedom Is a Constant Struggle
" If you want to make sense of a world upside-down, this staggering masterpiece will show you how-and then it blazes a path to a more loving and caring future." -V (formerly Eve Ensler), author of Reckoning and The Vagina Monologues
"Naomi Klein is one of our most important intellectuals, distilling the political economies of corruption and crisis in our time. Here she plunges into the topsy-turvy world of doubles and mirrors to show that the growth of the right is not a case of malignancies infecting our otherwise pure societies; rather, it's a matter of our own fears, insecurities, and defense mechanisms, all of them rooted in a savagely unequal and violent society. Klein writes with humor, enormous bravery, and humbling vulnerability. This is an extraordinary book." -Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor, author of From #BlackLivesMatter to Black Liberation
"Once a decade, Naomi Klein writes a book that prompts us to completely rethink the moment we're in. Doppelganger helps us to understand, in a deep and tectonic way, why our society is becoming unrecognizable to us-and why so many people we know are changing in disturbing ways. It's a book about going down a rabbit hole that becomes about the nature of the rabbit hole itself. If you want to understand where we are now-and how to find our way back to sanity-you have to read this totally brilliant book." -Johann Hari, author of Stolen Focus
"This book is as foreboding as a guide through the maze of mirrors of the modern right should be. But it's not only that: Naomi Klein has made Doppelganger gripping and scintillating, too. The result is a reckoning with the present moment that's as insightful as all of Klein's indispensable work, and as suspenseful as a novel." -China Miéville, author of The City & The City and A Spectre, Haunting: On "The Communist Manifesto"
"A dazzling, hallucinatory tour de force that takes the reader through shadow selves and global fascism, leaving them gasping by the end." -Molly Crabapple, author of Drawing Blood
"Naomi Klein's books have been building one on the next to create a powerful cognitive mapping of our time. This new book takes a personal turn, then opens out into an analysis of our shared global dilemma that is as incisive and fascinating as anything she has ever written-which is saying a lot. As always, my first thought on finishing one of her books is Thank you." -Kim Stanley Robinson, author of The Ministry for the Future
"I finished this book and nearly cried with relief. Klein gave me the gift of being calm. She explores and diagnoses with empathy, warmth and searing precision the confusion and utter madness of what it is to be alive right now. This is a big book with big ideas which poses the most direct questions for our times. Everyone needs to read it as a matter of urgency." -Sheena Patel, author of I'm a Fan
