"There are few reasons for telling the truth, but for lying the number is infinite." It's a little slow-moving, but it is translated well (the daughter of Robert Graves translated it). The characters are interesting, although an inordinate number of them spend time ensconced in dark, lonely rooms (that's the Europeans for you). I was sort of let down by the ending.
