The heart is deceitful above all things - JT LeRoy
KORTE INHOUD
The extraordinary stories that brought the author a cult following at the age of sixteen.
These are the stories of a young boy on the run, away from his past, hellbent towards an unknown future. Connected, they form a sometimes harrowing, sometimes bleakly funny, and often touchingly tender portrait of an astonishing life. Like a modern-day Voltaire, LeRoy bounces his characters from adventure to adventure, each of them unyielding in the belief that the best of all possible worlds lies just around the next corner. Fresh, raw, and absolutely unforgettable, 'The Heart is Deceitful Above all Things' has further established the acclaimed author of 'Sarah' as one of the most compelling voices in contemprorary fiction.
'Powerful... LeRoy manages to write simply about the more tangled of emotions - and to describe, without hatred or self-pity, the most monstrous of deeds.' (Newsweek)
'LeRoy's work is a startling achievement in his accelerating mastery of the literary form.'(Publishers Weekly)
