Text

[A self-help volume, purporting to help those prone to deceit and insincerity.]

Let us speak plainly, dear reader. You may believe deception to be an artform - one that benefits you more than it harms you. But this is the worst lie of all - the self-deception that shall one day be your ruin. But how can you break the cycle? It can prove difficult to speak the truth when lies come so easily. Instead, perhaps do not speak at all. If you cannot be honest, then at least you can be silent.

[The book continues on at great length, suggesting treatments pioneered by the House of Grief may help, should self-improvement fail.]
