The Liars' Club: A Memoir - Karr, Mary

The Liars' Club: A Memoir by Karr, Mary

Format: Trade Paperback

Published by Penguin Books, 1998

The Liars’ Club took the world by storm and raised the art of the memoir to an entirely new level, bringing about a dramatic revival of the form. Karr’s comic childhood in an east Texas oil town brings us characters as darkly hilarious as any of J. D. Salinger’s-a hard-drinking daddy, a sister who can talk down the sheriff at age twelve, and an oft-married mother whose accumulated secrets threaten to destroy them all.
