THE BOOK

Real People. Complicated Truth.
A Life Still Belonging.

The Journal of an Unreliable Witness is a collection of thirty-four witness statements, each a piece of a life lived in the tension between what happened, what was believed, and what can be known.

WITNESS STATEMENT

“Memory isn’t a straight line. It’s a conversation — and sometimes, a confession.”

These are not neat, linear stories. They are memories — sometimes sharp, sometimes hazy, sometimes both — told by a witness who knows that memory is complicated, truth is layered, and healing is possible even when the details don’t perfectly align.
