Decent lies (Amal Akhmedov)

Описание книги:

Alison is caught between two lives. In one, she is a devoted wife to Robert, a man slowly dying of stomach cancer, counting his last months in a darkened bedroom. In the other, she is someone else entirely — a woman rediscovering warmth, desire, and a version of herself she thought she had buried long ago. She cannot leave her husband. She cannot give up the man who makes her feel alive. And she cannot outrun the secrets she has kept for years — from Robert, from her children, from herself. Decent Lies is a novel about the impossible choices we make in the name of love and duty, about the lies we tell to keep our lives intact, and about the truths that surface when everything else falls away. Some secrets are revealed. Others we carry with us — to the very end.
