Chris's Reviews > The Truth

Really enjoyed this book about a man struggling between fame/money and truth, something that's kind of important nowadays, don't you think?

Yes, it's written by Michael Palin, and to call me a Monty Python fan would be putting it mildly. But above all the things Palin has been over his successful career, he is first and foremost a writer. He does, though, use his extensive travel knowledge to good use as he describes eastern India as the place where his main character meets his reclusive bio subject. But it has some twists and turns along the way, both inflating and deflating idealism at the same time.

It's an interesting and enjoyable read, no matter how Pythonesque the author.
