Line 21:
* [[Halfway Plot Switch]]: From a man who learns to lie in a world of truth to a deconstruction of love and religion.
* [[High Concept]]: Of a world where lying never came to be.
* [[In a World]]: As seen in the poster used as the page image: "In a world where everyone can only tell the truth... this guy can lie."
* [[In Spite of a Nail]]: Somehow, a world without deceit, lies, and in this case, religion, still wound up exactly the same in every other respect.
* [[Jerkass]]: In a world without lies or deceit, it seems a great many of us are in fact shallow, self-involved jerkasses who place physical looks over love and family.
