Patrick deWitt’s take on 19th century folk lore starring the out of luck, unhappy, habitual liar Lucy (Lucien Minor), kicked out of his own village for bad behavior and forced to work for a mysterious baron in the suspiciously dreadful Castle Von Aux. Fans of Monty Python and Christopher Moore might find this novel a delight. Anthony Cummins spoke to deWitt in September 2015 for “The White Review” in a very interesting interview about a number of topics, including sincerity in writing for readers versus catering to genre and expectations.
