KARR, MARY The Liars' Club A MemoirViking/Penguin Group, NY, 1995, 1st Ed 5th Pr. Hardbound. The author writes of her family and her younger self in the Texas refinery town of Leechfield. Her father, champion spinner of improbable tales told at the local American Legion Bar to other members of the Liar's Club. She tells of her mother's unimaginable past that threatens the family's very sanity; of her mad, puritanical grandmother; of a vast inheritance squandered in one year flat; of endless emptied bottles; and the darkness inflicted on an eight-year-old girl. Her voice explodes with antic wit, stripped of self-pity. Miraculously, it makes a journey into joy. Here is a terrific family of liars redeemed by a slow unearthing of truth. LCCN 94-41252. 320 Pgs. Description text copyright 2005 ISBN: 0670850535. V-Fine in Good- DJ. Paper DJ. 8vo..
