Book Overview
...an extraordinary biography of an extraordinary woman. -- The Globe and Mail Downie makes an impressive debut as a biographer. -- Maclean'sAcclaimed author Anne Cameron delivers a knockout one-two reading punch with the publication of Wedding Cakes, Rats and Rodeo Queens. Here's a novel riding roughshod with twists of lust, violence and murder, yet filled with extraordinary characters searching for love, acceptance and redemption. There's Kitty, our heroine, who's tough as nails on the outside and achingly vulnerable on the inside. She and her four siblings are growing up in the human equivalent of a toxic waste dump: their only positive role model is the Gunsmoke family they see in re-runs. All of them searching for their own peculiar brand of love, these are vividly drawn characters who deftly rope us into a story that is raucously funny and poignantly tender -- a wild and unforgettable read.

Couldn't Put It Down...
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Anne Cameron accomplishes the impossible - capturing all the blood and tears of a heart-breakingly disfunctional family with the complexity of Indian shaman legend and good old fashioned urban myth. This author can spin a tale that by turns stands your hair on end and forces out a tear or two of helpless remorse. Regardless of the wild ride, the ending is one of hope and unconditional love with a little help from the gods...I'm waiting for the sequel!
