From the Corner of Bad and Ass

A Memoir

Beschreibung

From the Corner of Bad and Ass is a collection of Carrie Schiffler's memories about growing up in welfare housing to absentee and alcoholic parents. Throughout these heart-wrenching and often-hilarious stories we cheer her on as she fights to survive domestic violence, sexual abuse, and cycles of poverty and addiction -- all before her 18th birthday. Prepare to laugh at her attempts to earn the attention she craves and prepare to cry over the inappropriate attention she receives.

Autor

Carrie Schiffler is an actor who writes and a writer who acts. Sometimes the two talents merge resulting in a one woman show, most notably, Tabitha A Girl and Her Box, produced by Ground Zero Theatre in Calgary, Alberta. She also received an honourable mention for 'Lemon Opera' in Lorian Hemingway's short story contest 2016. Her first collection of poetry, Umbilicus is a meditation on the sensuous and includes images by her daugher, international artist Johanna Stickland.
