Believable Lies is a story cycle, from rocker-hippies debating who invented dry hair, through a midlife crisis of unrequited love, on to seniors getting cash rewards for Early Termination. The reality behind the news reports and tweets is revealed by ordinary characters in extraordinary situations, who discover the absurd is easier than the rational.
The Story Behind This Book
Growing up in the 20th Century, we all talked about changing the world. Now the world is changed, and we find we got lost along the way. When did that happen? Was it while we were smoking with the boys upstairs? Maybe our lovers told us life stories that turned out not to be true. Or maybe the technology changes so quickly we never really catch up. Can reality actually be reduced to tweets? Different characters with different voices drive the story cycle in Believable Lies. Life is funny sometimes, isn't it? And then, when we look in the mirror, are we still laughing?
