Liar is a dark, gritty and true to life novel following a young boy as he grows up in inner city London with his drug addicted mother. It illustrates the realities of addiction as well as society's obsession with labels and how they affect people's lives.
Such a heartbreaking story of one young child battling survival living with his junkie mother. I read this in one sitting I needed to get to a happy conclusion for young Jay. A thought provoking book which portrays aspects of our society that are not only very raw and gritty but compassionate.
Gritty and raw tale of Jay a nine year old living with his junkie mother. Told from all sides this shows the nature of addiction and the stigma it places on the whole family. Very well written.
