Episode 118: KTCO Book Club - The True Deceiver (with Alyssa Harad)
For this installment of the KTCO Book Club, I\u2019m joined by writer Alyssa Harad for a conversation about Tove Jansson\u2019s 1982 novel The True Deceiver. Despite the slimness of the volume, Jansson\u2019s novel yet contains a surprising degree of depth and complexity, not to mention psychological tension, in a story that challenges the reader to consider the nature of truth, honesty, and different forms of deception.
