 Amazon.com: City of Truth (A Harvest Book): Books: James Morrow   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Morrow's nearly perfect satiric novella takes place in the dystopia of Veritas, where everyone tells the truth or faces harsh punishment--which Jack Sperry risks when he learns that his son Toby has a fatal disease and that by lying to him he may enable Toby's cure.
Morrow's tale approaches the bitterness of farce as he chronicles a desperate man's search for lies to save his dying son.
