Fruitcake. n. 1. A cake containing dried fruit. 2. Slang. An eccentric or mad person. Well you have read the definitions so which one of them do you think the next 365 pages are going to be dedicated to? A moist, slightly bitter cake, decorated (or not as is your want) on top with nude but strategically placed almonds. Or a woman – Anne Sheridan to be specific – verging dangerously close to the edge of losing it. Well wouldn’t you be after twenty jobs (in as many years); two husbands; two kids; two illnesses and a slew of boyfriends in between that could at the very least be described as sadistic?
The Recipe For A Fruitcake is a hilarious and at times tearful account of one woman’s fight for survival in a world where when the going gets tough, the tough either get tougher or closer to being certified.Alle rechten voorbehouden
