As a new cultural revolution aims to institutionalize a tyranny of ideological clichés, Dreher renews Solzhenitsyn's great call to 'live not by lies.' I cannot imagine a more timely and urgent book, or one with a more enduring spiritual, political, and cultural message. -- Daniel J. Mahoney, coeditor of The Solzhenitsyn Reader In this remarkably prescient book, Dreher sets Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's timeless appeal to 'live not by lies' as the cornerstone of his own bold warning. His suggestion of a dawning post-Christian, 'pre-totalitarian' society is impossible to dismiss in light of the patient case he builds for his passionate, if provocative, thesis. -- Ignat Solzhenitsyn, conductor and pianist Live Not By Lies will cement Rod Dreher's reputation as the most important Christian thinker of our age. * Crisis Magazine *
