The Truth Behind the Lies: One Man's Journey Through Wwiii by Jaeson D RauMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
The Truth Behind the Lies: One Man’s Journey Through WWIII by Jaeson D. Rau uses the personal touch of a journal in order to encapsulate thoughts on society and mankind as a whole. The format is a little tough to get into, the main character's words form one long rant after another. He even indicates that he is ranting to his wife Summer as he goes on and on about tough subjects. Having seemingly escaped from war, and hanging out in a remote cabin after he becomes free, he embarks on recounting his thoughts in this expansive personal expose'. From tackling subjects like mass consumerism to adultery, to addictions of all kinds, to simply letting our lives go by, the author has taken great pains to point out the ills of society, and blames us, not the government for war and much more. We let this happen. This is certainly a unique book, and one that requires several readings in order to digest the content, The Truth Behind the Lies is a tour de force that is a great social commentary of many of the horrific issues plaguing man today. Highly recommend.
