Description
For fans of Mennonite in a Little Black Dress and Let’s Pretend This Never Happened, comedian and Emmy Award-winning writer Sara Schaefer’s hilariously honest memoir takes readers on a trip through the Grand Canyon that causes her to reflect on her childhood and the scandal that changed her family forever. The Schaefer family was caught up in a scandal when Sara was in first grade. Her father warned her to always tell the truth because one lie leads to another and soon you will find yourself in a hole you can’t escape. Later, Sara's parents become pariahs in their upper-middle-class community when it is revealed that their grand life is based on a lie. The idea of good and evil as binary, opposing forces are drilled into Sara, who becomes increasingly anxious and obsessive.
