The Liars' Club - Mary Karr

A New York Times non-fiction bestseller back in 1995 by poet and professor Mary Karr. And memorialist, since she wrote two more books telling about her later life. This one is about her childhood, a difficult one. Alcoholism in the center of the picture with vivid descriptions and humour; this last being the only way to deal with this kind of story. The title refers to the tales her father used to tell.
