Ritter in Residence

Więcej o książce

Whether you know Erika Ritter as a CBC radio host, as a playwright, or as a writer, you'll know that she is a very witty lady. Or 'dame' (see 'Great Dames'). In this fine, funny collection of 36 pieces she covers everything from the Great Imponderables ('Sonya wants to know why she runs into sexually tempting men only when she has failed to shave her legs') to details such as the proper costume for dogs (a Pekinese in a jaunty kerchief, she warns, looks like 'a prune in a sling'). As you would expect, she offers shrewd guidance through the romantic tangles woven by supposedly adult men and women. Alarmed by the prospects for Young Urban Single Women she goes so far as to take 'Submissiveness Training' from Bambi McCoy, and, creative to the last, outlines 'One Hundred Uses of a Dead Relationship.' — from inside flap.
