The definitive account of the spectacular rise and fall of Lance Armstrong.

The most complete biography of Lance Armstrong, written by Juliet Macur, a New York Times journalist, one of the journalists who most had access to the American cyclist, before and after his confession. . In June 2013, when Lance Armstrong left his palatial residence in Texas, harassed by multi-million lawsuits against him, Juliet Macur was there. with him, talking to his girlfriend and children, and listening to the truth version of Lance Armstrong. She was one of the few journalists, in addition to Oprah Winfrey, to have direct access to the most famous sport pariah. Armstrong himself is in the center of The Wheel of Lies, through personal interviews. But the book's narrative is deployed to further deepen and extend it through the first-person accounts of more than a hundred witnesses, including members of his family that Armstrong turned his back on some time ago, such as the adoptive father who gave him his last name, his grandmother or his wife. Perhaps, the most overwhelming story is the recorded testimony of J.T. Neal, one of the most influential people among the different father figures that Armstrong had, recorded during the last years of Neal's life, when he lost. his battle against cancer just when Armstrong became famous for surviving the disease. In the end, it was Armstrong's old friends, those who enjoyed a cherished place within his narrow circle that betrayed him. It was they who delivered the final blow, breaking the code of silence that shielded the sad truth of the public's cycling, and the sad truth about his golden boy, Armstrong. Spinning the disparate and lifelong voices of people with a deep knowledge of both the public and the private Armstrong, Macur weaves a rich and unforgettably rich tapestry of a man's astounding rise to world fame and fortune, and its devastating fall in disgrace.
