Description:
Rita Mae Brown tells her own story, from the small-town antics of her garrulous family to her rise to the top as a novelist and controversial public figure in this brash and witty memoir. Her early years amid a wisecracking Southern clan instilled in her the spunk that has become a trademark in her fiction. Always the outsider -- as the illegitimate daughter of a relative -- her strength came from always being herself.
Expand description
Being gay was never an issue in her family. But it was a different story in the "real world". Leaving the beloved South after being ousted from college for her lesbianism and support of civil rights, Rita Mae became involved in the fledgling women's movement in New York, but was expelled from Now for her outspokenness. With the publication of Rubyfruit Jungle she was catapulted into the public sphere as the most famous openly gay person in America.
Throughout, Rita Mae Brown has maintained an irreverent sense of humor that flavors every page of this irresistible memoir.
