3.0
I read this long, 149-page poem for one of my courses. This book is confessional, personal and highly autobiographical, as it chronicles the disintegration of the poet's relationship with another Canadian poet. Liar begins two years after the breakup, then continuously flips back and fourth between before, during and after the relationship.
I didn't love Liar - I thought it was a little long, and could have been better if it was shorter or divided in a different way. Despite this, there were quite a few phrases/lines/moments in the poem that caught my attention, and I think that if I re-read Liar I would enjoy it more.
