<p><b>From the beloved actor and star of <i>Twin Peaks</i>, <i>Blue Velvet</i> and <i>Sex and the City</i> comes a candid and deeply personal memoir.</b></p><p></p><p>'Charming, self-effacing, completely authentic, and slyly wise' <b><i>Ethan Hawke</i></b></p><p></p><p>'Fascinating and insightful...big-hearted and revealing...I loved this book' <b><i>Carrie Brownstein</i></b></p><p></p><p>In this highly anticipated memoir, the beloved actor and star of<b> <i>Twin Peaks</i>, <i>Blue Velvet</i>,<i> Sex and the City</i></b> and more shares his utterly original account of his offbeat journey in Hollywood, his battles with fear and fame, and the projects that shaped him-and created a cult icon.</p><p></p><p>Everywhere I go I am followed by a mystery man. He looks like me but-not quite. On talk shows, I sip coffee on couches and pretend to be him; on social media, I put on his mask to engage in suburban silliness. And of course, we work together. But for him, the movies and TV shows never end. Where does this guy-this Kyle MacLachlan-end and where do I begin? And is he even real? And, holy mackerel...am I?</p><p></p><p>To be in the black suit, or not to be? Kyle MacLachlan's funny, moving, and playfully self-aware memoir charts a career that could belong to no other. Plucked from obscurity to star in <b>David Lynch's <i>Dune</i></b>, the Hollywood blockbuster that never was, MacLachlan rebounded with a startling performance in Lynch's provocative masterpiece <b><i>Blue Velvet</i></b>, which would mark him as a master of the unusual and ultimately lead to his career-defining role as <b>Agent Dale Cooper </b>on the TV sensation <b><i>Twin Peaks</i></b>.</p><p></p><p>Fictional Selves is a book of doppelgangers, with MacLachlan mirrored by his own prodding ego ("Other Kyle"), the iconic characters he inhabited, and the ones that eluded his grasp but gave him a profound and surprising lens onto himself as a person and a performer. Taking us to the heights of critical success f
