True Story Based on Lies

A True Story Based on LIes is a remarkable first novel that addresses the universal issues of classs discrimination, male oppression, and female servitude through dual narravites of spellbinding power. Set in contemporary Mexico, the book charts the consequences of a sexual relationship between Leonora, a swervant in the wealthy O'Conner home, and her master. When a child, Aura Olivia, is born from this union, she is brought up as the daughter of the house. As the novel unfolds, the "true" story gradually emerges. As compassionate as it is profound. A True Story Based on Lies delivers the same emotional impact as Tone Morrison's astonishing debut.
