COMEDY THAT LEAVES YOU GASPING
Donna Dakotah's outrageous, unpredictable sense of humor explodes in the pages of TOO YOUNG TO BE A GRANDMA, TOO OLD TO BE AN EXOTIC DANCER. This author of extraordinary talent creates a whole new genre.
Raquel Belletouche is 47, overweight, and more than a little unbalanced. She has the kindest mirror on the planet. In it she still sees the voluptuous young woman that she was in her youth. But life has its problems. Megan, her five year-old grand-daughter, hasn't stopped screeching since she was ejected from her mother's womb. Marty, her bi-polar coroner daughter, performs autopsies on her food while she's eating it, and suffers agonozing withdrawals when she hasn't dissected a human in over four hours. Lola Mazola, her time-dated but loyal best friend, supports her madness. Rocky's accountant husband, Edward, doesn't quite know how to cope. He loses himself in the predictable world of television re-runs. They're less tiring than anything Rocky has in mind. Rocky's latest ambition is to become an exotic dancer.
True to her obssessive-compulsive nature, she persuades her family to drive across two countries through mid-winter blizzards so she can try out as a Las Vegas Show Girl. Too Young To Be A Grandma, Too Old To Be An Exotic Dancer is destined to become the book that everybody talks about. Release date is set for April 15, 2003, after which time it will be available at www.amazon.com, www.barnesandnoble.com, and your favorite bookstore. If your favorite bookstore doesn't have it in stock yet, they can order if for you give them the ISBN # 0-9732550-0-5. Not a novice, Donna Dakotah began her writing career twelve years ago.
