When a father helps his kids touch the sky and pluck the stars, why can’t kids do the same for him? We all know that the darkest nights produce the brightest moon and stars. “The Unkissed Lies” is a memoir woven with unconditional love and is dedicated by a daughter to her father. Her father met with a minor accident at the time when the WHO declared COVID-19 as a global pandemic. Everything happens for a reason, or does it? His daughter was never quite ready but she was brave enough to face the ordeal. This personal account captures themes and metaphors of personal loss, love, pain, hope, patience, strength, unity and everything in between. The author recounts and reflects how she dealt and haggled with the situation and the lies she had to tell her father, the policemen, the hospital staff, family and perhaps to herself.
