“Wickedly funny and always movingly illuminating, thanks to kick-ass storytelling and a poet's ear.”–Oprah.com

The New York Times bestselling, hilarious tale of Mary Karr’s hardscrabble Texas childhood that Oprah.com calls the best memoir of a generation.

The Liars’ Club took the world by storm and raised the art of the memoir to an entirely new level, bringing about a dramatic revival of the form. Karr’s comic childhood in an east Texas oil town brings us characters as darkly hilarious as any of J. D. Salinger’s—a hard-drinking daddy, a sister who can talk down the sheriff at age twelve, and an oft-married mother whose accumulated secrets threaten to destroy them all. This unsentimental and profoundly moving account of an apocalyptic childhood is as “funny, lively, and un-put-downable” (USA Today) today as it ever was.

Reseñas de la Crítica

PEN/Martha Albrand Award, Winner

"Astonishing ... one of the most dazzling and moving memoirs to come along in years."—Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times

"This book is so good I thought about sending it out for a backup opinion...it's like finding Beethoven in Hoboken. To have a poet's precision of language and a poet's insight into people applied to one of the roughest, toughest, ugliest places in America is an astonishing event."—Molly Ivins, The Nation

"The essential American story ... a beauty."—Jonathan Yardley, The Washington Post Book World

Featured Article: The top 100 memoirs of all time


All genres considered, the memoir is among the most difficult and complex for a writer to pull off. After all, giving voice to your own lived experience and recounting deeply painful or uncomfortable memories in a way that still engages and entertains is a remarkable feat. These autobiographies, often narrated by the authors themselves, shine with raw, unfiltered emotion sure to resonate with any listener. But don't just take our word for it—queue up any one of these listens, and you'll hear exactly what we mean.

Excellent story. I think the author inherited her father’s ability to pull you into a story. I am reviewing both The Liars’ Club and Lit. Reading them both is a requirement. Her writing is truly captivating and so smart, a true storyteller. It draws me in and makes me feel every emotion she intended. The way she expresses her thoughts at times left me in tears and wanting more. Did she ever hear from the people in her hometown after the books were published? One last thing. Warning to all readers – After listening to Mary Carr’s writing, don’t be surprised if the next few books you read/listen to seem poorly written. Her writing is scary smart.

I felt like I was watching a movie, not listening

I love the easy narrative style that allows the reader/listen to read with ease and get comfortable. And just as you get comfortable, Karr hits you with a depth that engages your soul and hooks you into her life and forces you to reflect on your own. Will read this one again.

Lovely memoir and the author’s voice seals the deal

Loved the entire book. So poignant and yet greatly forgiving. An excellent example of reconciliation. A lot to be learned about rising out of dysfunction.

The intense honesty.

That was a very real trip back in time. It was like the whole thing could have been written about the neighborhood I grew up in.

I grew up one town over in Port Arthur at the exact same time.

A professor of English and also a nice neighbor gifted me this book. It was really fun to read and a catharsis in fact.
