"The secrets burrowed in this seemingly placid small town...are so suburban noir they would make David Lynch clap with glee... Moriarty] is a fantastically nimble writer, so sure-footed that the book leaps between dark and light seamlessly; even the big reveal in the final pages feels earned and genuinely shocking. "Entertainment Weekly"
"Reading one ofLiane Moriarty's novels] is a bit like drinking a pink cosmo laced with arsenic... BIG LITTLE LIES] is a fun, engaging and sometimes disturbing read "USA Today"
"Sometimes it s the little lies that turn out to be the most lethal. . . ."
A murder . . . a tragic accident . . . or just parents behaving badly?
What s indisputable is that someone is dead.

But who did what?

"Big Little Lies" follows three women, each at a crossroads:

Madeline is a force to be reckoned with. She s funny and biting, passionate, she remembers everything and forgives no one. Her ex-husband and his yogi new wife have moved into her beloved beachside community, and their daughter is in the same kindergarten class as Madeline s youngest ("how "is this possible?). And to top it all off, Madeline s teenage daughter seems to be choosing Madeline s ex-husband over her. (How. Is. This. Possible?).


Celeste is the kind of beautiful woman who makes the world stop and stare. While she may seem a bit flustered at times, who wouldn t be, with those rambunctious twin boys? Now that the boys are starting school, Celeste and her husband look set to become the king and queen of the school parent body. But royalty often comes at a price, and Celeste is grappling with how much more she is willing to pay.

New to town, single mom Jane is so young that another mother mistakes her for the nanny. Jane is sad beyond her years and harbors secret doubts about her son. But why? While Madeline and Celeste soon take Jane under their wing, none of them realizes how the arrival of Jane and her inscrutable little boy will affect them all.

"Big Little Lies" is a brilliant take on ex-husbands and second wives, mothers and daughters, schoolyard scandal, and the dangerous little lies we tell ourselves just to survive.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:

** The number one bestseller Big Little Lies is now a highly anticipated HBO series starring Nicole Kidman, Reese Witherspoon, Michael Fassbender and Shailene Woodey **
Perfect family, perfect house, perfect life; Jane, Madeline and Celeste have it all . . . or do they? They are about to find out just how easy it is for one little lie to spiral out of control.
From the author of Truly Madly Guilty and The Husband's Secret comes a novel about the dangerous little lies we tell ourselves just to survive.
Jane hasn't lived anywhere for longer than six months since her son was born five years ago. She keeps moving in an attempt to escape her past. Now the idyllic coastal town of Pirriwee has pulled her to its shores and Jane feels as if she finally belongs. She finds friends in the feisty Madeline and the incredibly beautiful Celeste, two women with seemingly perfect lives - and their own secrets.
But at the start of a new term, an incident involving the children of all three women occurs in the playground, causing a rift between them and other parents. Minor at first but escalating fast, until the whispers and rumours become vicious and spiteful, and the truths blur into lies.
It was always going to end in tears, but no one thought it would end in murder . . .
'Brilliant, stand-out, superbly clever. Moriarty writes vividly, wittily and wickedly' Sunday Express
'Blame and guilt, forgiveness and retribution, love and betrayal. A tense page-turning story . . . a great read' Mail on Sunday
'Staggeringly brilliant . . . literally unputdownable' Sophie Hannah
