From the author of the wildly controversial books Liar and Paul''s Case comes one of the most anticipated - and perhaps, in some quarters, feared - books of the year. This is author Lynn Crosbie at her most honest, most cutting, most hilarious, and most heartbreaking. The stories told here are at once a cache, a repository, of a seven-year period in the author''s life; and, too, a gymnasium, a place where she can flex her prodigious wit and her dazzling stash of literary tricks
