Mary Karr grew up in a swampy East Texas refinery town, with a mother - seven times married - whose outlaw spirit could tip over into psychosis, and a heavy-drinking, fist-swinging father, who liked nothing better than to spin tales with his cronies at the Liars' Club. Telling her story with a raw and often painful honesty, and an authenticity entirely stripped of self-pity, the harshness of the world Karr paints is redeemed by her warmth, intelligent humour and finely spun prouse; The Liars' Club is both heart-stopping and heartfelt.
