About this listen
When Sarah Viren began writing her memoir, she thought it would be about her high school philosophy teacher — a charismatic, guru-like figure who taught his students to question everything. Even, in the end, the reality of the holocaust. But while she was writing, Sarah and her family were caught up in a web of lies when false charges of sexual misconduct were brought against her wife, Marta, and eventually against Sarah herself. In her new book "To Name the Bigger Lie: A Memoir in Two Stories" she book she tells how, in the course of trying to prove their innocence, she’s drawn back into the questions that her high school teacher inspired all those years ago: about the nature of truth, the pull of seductive conspiracies, and the stakes we all have in getting the story right.
