When does a secret become a lie? And are all lies wrong? Minnesota native Maggie Ginsberg — now a resident of Madison, Wisconsin — deftly explores these questions in her engaging debut novel, "Still True." Set in the small town of Anthem, Wisconsin, the story follows the lives of two couples — middle-aged Lib and her husband, Jack, who have lived in Anthem their entire lives, and newcomers Claire and Dan, a young couple with a 10-year-old son.
When Lib's biggest secret — the son she abandoned 40 years before — shows up at her front door, she is terrified. She's terrified of losing Jack, who believes in scrupulous honesty and openness, and she is terrified of opening up about her traumatic past.
