This paper gives a critical overview of Jörg  Meibauer’s (2014)  monograph entitled  Lying at the Semantics-Pragmatics Interface  and addresses a selection of theoretical issues pertinent to lying and deception. Thus, following a brief summary of the volume’s contents, more attention is paid to the speaker’s intention to deceive as a potentially necessary condition for lying, which invites a question concerning the status of bald-faced lies. Further, this article focuses on deception performed by dint of implicature.  Meibauer’s (2014)  postulates in reference to these issues are critically revisited, and the focal phenomena are examined from a broader perspective.
