Just the Truth and Nothing but Fiction

A semi-autobiographical story about Jim Carrey, from Jim Carrey himself and his co-author, journalist Dana Vachon—about what kind of sadness can be hidden behind the mask of the world’s happiest man. For readers aged 18+.

Meet Jim Carrey. A wildly successful and beloved actor adored by millions, he drowns in wealth and honors, but feels lonely. Getting rid of the sensation of emptiness and boredom isn’t helped by trips to all sorts of gurus, nor by hugs from dogs, nor by the wise advice of his best friend, Nicolas Cage.

Then things start to fall into place. Jim meets Georgie— the love of his life. Oscar-winning screenwriter Charlie Kaufman offers him a part in his new film—finally, a role worthy of an “Oscar”! But the Universe has entirely different plans...

“Only truth and nothing but fiction”—a bold semi-autobiographical novel with truly Hollywood-sized scope. It’s a story about acting and cinema, agents and celebrities, friendship and romance, an addiction to fame and the fear of losing it—and also about a catastrophic end of the world, an apocalypse—both external and internal.
