Three of the literary world’s most celebrated voices share their distinct takes on the 2019 Sydney Writers’ Festival 2019 theme, Lie to Me. New York Times bestselling author Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah (Friday Black), award-winning author Max Porter (Grief is a Thing with Feathers and Lanny) and Meg Wolitzer, acclaimed author of The Interestings and The Wife, examine the truths and falsehoods that underpin our daily lives, and the ways they influence matters of politics, race, gender and literature.
