Lying and Making a Living: Fiction with Footnotes by William Dunlap, William Dunlap

5.0

This was a fantastic collection of short stories. Each one was better than the last. I loved the quality of the stories and the fact that each of these stories could me make into its on 5 star book. I loved the footnotes they were so useful and gave the book an extra depth to it. I love the fact that each story had that one shocking moment that you don't see coming. Each story includes something controversial and is dealt with in extraordinary ways. There was never a dull moment in the entire book. I listened to the audio version of this book. I found the narrator added so much to else stories adding a great sense of atmosphere. He was perfect for this collection. I must note that I wasn't overly impressed with the cover though. However the title alone drew me into wanting to read this book. The title was so fitting to this book it was so clever. I will definitely be keeping my eye open for more titles by this author.
I would like to thank the author and publishers for bringing us such an amazing and very cleverly wrote collection of short storys really bring them to life.
