Tell Me If You're Lying: Essays

Tell Me If You're Lying: Essays by Sweeney, Sarah. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780988994546.

Literary Nonfiction. Essays. Growing up in an eccentric North Carolina home, with aging-hippie parents whose marriage was forever crumbling around her, author Sarah Sweeney was primed for trouble. For drugs and boys. For learning about sexuality from Madonna videos and prank-calling teachers and meeting celebrities--including a young Adrian Grenier. For escaping the South and even her own family. Funny, exuberant, and often heartbreaking, TELL ME IF YOURE LYING examines the lies were told as children and the downright unbelievable--but true--stories that comprise Sweeneys colorful coming of age.
