Father of Lies (2015)
“We have to hide the paper from my oldest, keep the television set unplugged. I do not return the reporters’ calls. If they manage to confront me on the way to or from the office, I refer them to the lawyer the Church has purchased on my behalf.
Feshtig keeps leaving messages on my work machine, saying he would like to speak further with me, that he felt we were making progress. He has seen the papers, he says, and knows I must be going through a difficult time. At first I have the secretary put... him off gently but when he keeps calling I block his number. I know now I have told him too much.
The twins come home from school to tell my wife what the other children are saying about me. Some say their parents know I am a good man, a provost of the True Church, and that I would never do such things. Others say their parents claim I am a devil.
My wife tells me this later. The twins never mention it to me but only seem remarkably reserved in my presence.
For my wife it is more difficult than for me.MoreLess
