Billy Parva: A True Story

Billy Parva has lived the greatest life ever imagined. A true story.

Meet Billy Parva: A Man with the Wildest Stories—and the Darkest Secrets

Billy Parva is a man who’s lived a life beyond imagination. He’ll tell you he’s worked for the Queen, won millions at the casino, been drafted into the Army for his deadly knife skills, and out-drunk a moose. Oh, and every ten in London? Been there, done that.

But here’s the catch—none of it’s true.

In this darkly comedic tale, Billy’s outrageous stories aren’t just tall tales—they’re a desperate attempt to paint over the cracks of a life unravelling at the seams. Beneath the bravado lies a man struggling with a broken marriage, a longing for a past that never really existed, and the crushing weight of living in his father’s shadow.

Billy is a storyteller—a man who spins lies to escape a reality he can’t face. But as his web of deceit tightens, the lines between his fantasies and the harsh truth begin to blur, and reality starts setting in.

Get ready to laugh, cringe, and question what’s real as you delve into the mind of a man whose greatest lie was to himself.
