More Lies

Bag om More Lies

More Lies is a highly referential comedy thriller about a writer being held hostage in their own apartment and forced to type to hide the manoeuvres of a femme fatale, holding a pearl-handled gun, and her brother, a small-time thug with big-time ambitions. This wild tale about assassination, lost gold, betrayal, passion and identity theft engages the reader in the many layers of the author's witty but deceptive journey. Through a series of lies, backflips and alternative versions of the tale, the author moves from being a trapped hack, forced to prostitute themselves, to dazzling the world with the acrobatics of their imagination, to the heart of the matter: storytelling is all that is keeping them alive. A phantasmagoric, avant-garde story set in a lost New York, Richard James Allen's More Lies both entertains and provokes as it reveals a world where 'truth is never enough/Or it's unlikeable.' A fluid narrative forward motion and a sense of the fundamental mystery of it all have never been so closely intertwined. - Nicholas Birns, New York University
