What is Rita Will : Memoir of a Literary Rabble-Rouser about?

When Rita Mae Brown writes, people often end up laughing out loud.So naturally, when the bestselling author of Rubyfruit Jungle, Venus Envy, and the Mrs. Murphy mystery series writes about her own life, it's a hoot, a rollicking ride with an independent, opinionated woman who changed literary history--the first openly lesbian writer to break into the mainstream.Now, in Rita Will, she tells all...and tells it hilariously. It is often said that the best comedy springs from hard times.And Rita Mae Brown has seen plenty of those.In this irresistibly readable memoir, she recounts the drama of her birth as the illegitimate daughter of a flighty blue blood who left her in an orphanage.The sickly baby was quickly rescued by relatives eager to adopt her but afraid she would not survive the long journey home.Her determination to live, and shock everyone by doing it, has become a metaphor for her entire life. Though raised by these loving adoptive parents and a wacky host of other interfering kin, Rita Mae Brown learned early on to be tough and to speak her mind.It was her refusal to be anything but herself that often brought her the most trouble.Here she tells of her tempestuous relation
