THE LIE A Memoir of Two Marriages, Catfishing & Coming Out

Will Damron's emotional narration elevates this memoir about coming out later in life. Dameron was in his mid-40s when he finally admitted to himself, his wife, and his two teenage daughers that he is gay. His story about the dissolution of his first marriage, built on lies, and the journey to his second marriage--this one honest--is full of heartache, self-denial, and forgiveness. Damron's sonorous voice adds depth to the author's words. Though the subject matter is serious and often painful, Damron's warm tone emphasizes the hope at the heart of the narrative. Listeners will be comforted by the light touch and gentle humor he brings to this audiobook, even as they empathize with the pain and regret so apparent in his voice.
