At a secluded private clinic, a patient makes a seemingly impossible claim: She asserts that she is such a good liar, whatever she says comes true. After every session, where she spills out the confessions of her life – a spectacular story full of deception, uncanny coincidences and out-of-this-world luck – her therapist becomes less and less certain. What if this woman is telling the truth? When strange things start happening in the clinic, the therapist begins to understand the extent of this fantastic power. And that she has long since become part of it. Author and presenter Friedemann Karig will talk to his podcast co-host Samira El Ouassil (“Piratensender Powerplay”) about his mesmerizing novel Die Lügnerin [“The Liar”], in which everything is true and nothing is real. “You don’t need to be a prophet to see that the stars are aligned for Friedemann Karig’s amusing novel about chance and fortune-telling, fate and frauds of all kinds” (Denis Scheck).
