Time of Lies



Time of Lies is a darkly comic political thriller by Douglas Board which is also a terrifyingly believable portrait of an alternative Britain.

Douglas has written about the book in a post for the Student Christian Movement which explores why Christians should set to work creating encounters across divides and building a cohesive, empathetic society one year after the divisive Brexit vote.

He ends his post by saying that novels would have been important to Jesus:

'This much we do know: he saw story as central to how we come to understand and share our identities as children of one God, and citizens of a place where the glass walls of class have been transcended.'
