Lies! Lies! Lies!: The Early Journal of John C. Gardner

Synopses & Reviews

Synopsis:

As a student at DePauw University in 1952, John Gardner (then, John C. Gardner) kept a notebook in which he penned thoughts on his upcoming marriage, the writings of Dumas, Fielding, Swift, and Thackeray and a student writing contest, which he eventually lost to a fellow DePauw writer by the name of John Jakes. Lies! Lies! Lies! is a celebration not only of John Gardner, the novelist and poet, but of a principled critic, a voracious reader, and an unsentimental analyst of his own complex personality.
