Very much not just for manga fans, Sensei's Pious Lie will appeal to readers of graphic novels and literary fiction in general.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSeeking to free herself and transform sex into something more than a curse, Misuzu Hara has finally stood up to her abuser, with devastating results.
