Lying can be used as a way to respond to conflict. I am sure that at least once in your life you have lied about something to protect yourself or someone else.

    Killings vs. In the Bedroom I really enjoyed the short story “Killings” written by Andre Dubus. I felt the story was very dark and depressing but what intrigued me most about the story was how close to real life it was.
