Zibby chats with award-winning author Sarah Manguso about LIARS, an eviscerating and unforgettable story of a marriage that burns to the ground and a woman who rises inexorably from its ashes. Sarah delves into her novel’s portrayal of a marriage that devolves into covert domestic abuse, exposing the often-overlooked dynamics of control and manipulation. She also reflects on her journey to becoming a writer and then describes a very tumultuous time in her life, which is when she wrote this powerful novel.
