Uncovering the Truth in 'To Name the Bigger Lie': A Review.

Sarah Viren's memoir "To Name the Bigger Lie" is a philosophical exploration of truth and deception, weaving together the story of her high school philosophy teacher and a smear campaign against her wife. Viren reflects on the relationship between truth and facts, and how easily fact and fiction can blur. The memoir has the page-turning quality of a thriller, but instead of tracking down culprits and solving mysteries, Viren methodically untangles knotty philosophical tensions in pursuit of what is real.
