Stephen Fry - "The Liar"
(2004) 'The Liar'
- Stephen Fry made his debut, as an author, with this great book. To cut to the chase, sex, gay sex, is more talked about than realised in this novel, despite the fact that Healey (the protagonist) is flamboyantly homosexual and becomes, for a time, a male prostitute in Piccadilly. But make no mistake: “The Liar” is deliberately, wonderfully and exuberantly offensive, with Fry reveling in the low-class jokes, stunts and incidents around which Healey has organized his life. Good fun. A must read.
