Abandoned child of genius scientists? Proprietor of the Emporium of the Future You? World-famous brain surgeon? Exactly who is Albert Park? Told through Albert Park's singular-albeit entirely unreliable-point-of-view, Albert Park: a memoir in lies is a thrice-told story of how ghosts haunt the present. Albert Park always believes he is being completely honest with anyone he meets-and thinks that by disclosing the truth about himself, others are fully aware of his motives and the potential dangers of being his friend. Albert charms, but more often irritates in telling his life stories; even so, the reader is carried along by the undercurrent of the unrevealed truth hidden in Albert's wounded soul.
