Opis

For better or for worse, for richer or for poorer: love and lies have always been the most intimate of bedfellows. And Clancy Martin - divorced twice, married three times - is no stranger to either. With help from Plato, Machiavelli, Raymond Carver and Pinocchio, here he explores the entanglements of love, truthfulness and deceit.

Recenzje

This is a strange and hauntingly intelligent book. To read it is to see new and unsettling complexities in our most cherished relationships, as well as to understand a little better the subtle workings of our own deceitful minds Oliver Thring Sunday Times
