James Frey’s editor now says he was duped by the author, and believed that everything in the book was true. “Throughout the editing process, I raised questions with James about the veracity of events he recounted in the book and in each instance he assured me that his account was accurate and true. The only things in ‘A Million Little Pieces’ that I understood were altered were the names and identifying characteristics of some of the people in the book to protect their real identities.”
