Publisher's Synopsis
'Marie Sheppard Williams is delightfully politically incorrect. She takes us inside sheltered workshops, hospitals, funeral parlors, assorted agencies staffed by social workers, and to a United Way picnic attended by dwarfs. Her characters are unique and unforgettable. This is a disarming, disturbing book."
-Maxine Kumin, author of Women, Animals, & Vegetables, winner of the Pulitzer Prize.
-Anne Lamott, author of Bird by Bird, and Traveling Mercies 'It's a wonderful book!.."
-Bill Holm, Minnesota Author of The Heart Can Be Filled Anywhere on Earth; and Minnesota Book Award Winner
