The Truth

Oh my gosh, i just realized something. The book is a lie! All this time I thought this was actually a real book that had been abridged. I thought that a very real scholar was mad that a very real Morgenstern's work was being copied. It's all fiction though. William Goldman's childhood, pneumonia, Mrs. Roginski, his frigid psychologist wife Helen, his fat son Jason, all of it! The only thing really true about it is his name (It's William Goldman alright).  This just rocked my world, and I feel really dumb, but it shocked me. I went straight to my mom saying "It's a lie, it's a lie." lol. An artistically well-crafted lie, but a lie nonetheless. Haha. I gotta change some of my work now. Gosh, this really shook me up. :-)
