The Road and Other Liars is a collection of poems and vignettes that express the essences of the misadventures, dramas, laughter, and sorrows we encounter along the ever-winding highways of life. It is the essence of each life experience that remains with us long after the details have faded and the emotions have waned, and "essence" is what the poems and vignettes in The Road and Other Liars are born to to capture and hold.
