Sometimes it’s the little lies that turn out to be the most lethal. . . .
A murder… . . . a tragic accident… . . . or just parents behaving badly?
What’s indisputable is that someone is dead.
But who did what?
Big Little Lies follows three women, each at a crossroads:
Madeline is a force to be reckoned with. She’s funny and biting, passionate, she
remembers
everything and forgives no one. Her ex-husband and his yogi new wife have
moved into her
beloved beachside community, and their daughter is in the same kindergarten
class as
Madeline’s youngest (how is this possible?). And to top it all off, Madeline’s
teenage daughter
seems to be choosing Madeline’s ex-husband over her. (How. Is. This. Possible?).
Celeste is the kind of beautiful woman who makes the world stop and stare.
While she may seem
a bit flustered at times, who wouldn’t be, with those rambunctious twin boys?
Now that the boys
are starting school, Celeste and her husband look set to become the king and
queen of the
school parent body. But royalty often comes at a price, and Celeste is grappling
with how much
more she is willing to pay.
New to town, single mom Jane is so young that another mother mistakes her for
the nanny. Jane
is sad beyond her years and harbors secret doubts about her son. But why? While
Madeline and
Celeste soon take Jane under their wing, none of them realizes how the arrival of
Jane and her
inscrutable little boy will affect them all.
Big Little Lies is a brilliant take on ex-husbands and second wives, mothers and
daughters,
schoolyard scandal, and the dangerous little lies we tell ourselves just to survive.
