Mara believed she knew her marriage, her mother, and her own history. Then a box of old photographs surfaces a secret her mother has kept for thirty years - and the questions Mara starts asking don't stay contained to the past. Her husband is hiding something too. Her closest friend is hiding something else. And the deeper Mara digs, the more she realizes the people she trusted most have spent decades protecting themselves and calling it love. Some truths, once spoken, can never be lived beside quietly again. The Lies We Live By is a gripping literary drama about the lies families tell to survive themselves - and the cost of finally telling the truth.
