Number Two: A Novel About the Man Who Didn't Become Harry Potter

What if you had a chance to be Harry Potter? And what if you missed that chance? In the run-up to the filming of the first movie of the famous movie franchise about the young wizard, many children tried out for the lead role, but only two were left in the final, and those on whom the decision depended hesitated for a long time, not knowing who to choose. They chose Daniel Radcliffe - a story we know all too well. But David Fonkinos didn't write about him - he wrote about someone we don't know: someone who wasn't chosen. It's also the story of the Boy Who Survived, but this boy has a life built around a giant default called "Harry Potter and My Failure" - a whole life with a void instead of a center, and no matter how much you go around in circles, you can't escape the void. How do you overcome defeat that isn't your fault? How do you reclaim a life that was stolen from you? Become invisible, become Harry Potter, become yourself? This is a story about magic - but there's more to it than spells.
