      About This Book

      This is a collection of seven stories and a novella with a common narrator, Joan, who explores various facets of her life: single Mom, social worker, aging woman, psychiatric patient, activist. Joan was introduced in three previous collections: The Worldwide Church of the Handicapped, The Weekend Girl, and The Soap Game. The author's voice has been called original, fresh, quirky, and "irresistible" (Dave Wood, former book editor of the Minneapolis Star Tribune). Williams uses humor to devastating effect - Anne Lamott once referred to her as "the funniest woman in Minneapolis" - but ultimately offers serious commentary on today's world.
