Pressestimmen

"In this terrifying, haunting, and controversial memoir, award-winning journalist Meredith Maran delves into the fascinating subject of the recovered memory movement... Maran's not just shockingly honest, she's also funny. Her refusal to whitewash her own behavior, her fierce ability to expose all sides of the issue (she doesn't deny that horrific abuse does occur and should be punished), and her compassion for the abused as well as those still falsely imprisoned as abusers opens up a dialogue about memory, belief, and past- and present-day culture that is as riveting as it is important." (Boston Globe, September 21, 2010) "Maran's story is so tension-filled that I want to keep some of the twists out of this review, allowing readers of this remarkable book to discover them apart from me." (San Francisco Chronicle, September 19, 2010)

Rezension

Only a writer as fierce and incisive as Meredith Maran could have written a book as intimate, dark, bracing and revelatory as My Lie.
MICHAEL CHABON, author of Manhood for Amateurs; and The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay

Meredith Maran is a wonderful journalist and storyteller, profoundly honest, direct, witty, savvy and compassionate.
ANNE LAMOTT, author of Grace (Eventually) and Bird By Bird

My Lie is the brave and riveting "inside story" of the most devastating mental health controversy of the century. I couldn't put it down.
ELIZABETH F. LOFTUS, PHD, co-author of Witness for the Defense and The Myth of Repressed Memory

To admit sin is hard. To own a grave sin committed against a loved one is more difficult still. To be able to write about it with honesty and grace is extraordinary. My Lie by Meredith Maran tells a story no reader will—or should—forget.
KATHRYN HARRISON, author of The Kiss and The Mother Knot

Meredith Maran is fearless, and My Lie is a shockingly honest, stunningly nuanced book. Every parent, and everyone who has a parent, should read this searing father-daughter story.
AYELET WALDMAN, author of Bad Mother and Love and Other Impossible Pursuits

"This marvelous, searing book held me in its thrall from the moment I read the Prologue, and never let go. Meredith Maran has written a page-turner of a memoir, at once brave and heartbreaking. Who among us hasn't questioned her own memory? In navigating her family history, Maran becomes a detective, and MY LIE reads like a mystery all the more suspenseful because the writer has taken great care to tell the truth."
DANI SHAPIRO, author of Devotion: A Memoir

Sensitive Topic Sensitively Covered 19. März 2012
Von Ryan C. Holiday - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
This is a very sensitive book on a very sensitive topic: that most recovered memories are not true. But the author approaches it with an empathy and self-awareness that I did not anticipate. I've said before that one of the things I respect most is when a person turns over a long-held belief. The flip side of that is that we often react vindictively toward the people who held the belief we once did, we lose our sense of understanding of them during our metamorphosis. Moran resists that temptation, even though few characters in her journey probably deserve it. If you end up liking this book or are interested in a broader take on the subject, then try Mistakes Were Made (But Not By Me) by Carol Tavris and Elliot Aronson.

Jumbled and Whimsical 1. Mai 2012
Von Robert F. Hynes - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
My Lie is a jumbled collection of vignettes that came from her research on incest and molestation and eventually caused her to "go native." What she fails to do is show the reader exactly how and why she started to believe her own lie. She hints at it. She goes at great length to describe her feelings of emptiness, impressions about her father, discomfort in her genitals. But somehow without ever remembering a specific episode she puts together a fiction that she was molested but "forgot." And in her own deranged mind, this was enough for her to believe that it must have really happened. My heart goes out to her family who was most injured by her recklessness.

Hope for a fractured family 29. Oktober 2010
Von RW44 - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
I finished this book with tears in my eyes. Tears of sadness for the heartache, pain and even prison time caused by the false accusations spawned by the repressed memory hysteria. Tears of anger because so many supposed professionals in mental health and law enforcement would be so gullible or so greedy that they would fan the flames of this psychological malpractice. And tears of hope that this book could help close this ugly chapter in American culture and my life. I am one of the thousands of fathers who were falsely accused of molesting their daughters based on the crackpot theory of repressed memories. I have had no meaningful contact with my daughter for almost twenty years and now have two grandchildren I may never meet. "My Lie" gives a cogent account of how this happened from a woman who has a unique perspective on this destructive phenomenon. I hope the book will be a powerful counterweight to "The Courage to Heal", a poisonous, speculative, unscientific volume of blather that has played a major role in fracturing families.
