My Name is Fiona by Patricia Webster Stewart includes outrageous opinions, intriguing insights, purely fiction, and odd behaviors perpetrated by family members and other unforgettable characters. Here, a spunky unborn baby learns how to use Morse code to tell her parents her name is Fiona. In another purely fiction story, sit down in a bar on the shady outskirts of Memphis when Patricia steals a kiss from Elvis. And speaking of Elvis, do the outlaw Jesse James and singer Elvis Presley have a shared lineage? Read on to see Patricia's patriotic camel Joe become belligerent when the President wants to send him to Afghanistan, and a good-for-nothing mongrel dog discloses a valuable hidden talent. Then learn Bessie's secret weakness that turned her from her staunch Baptist roots to an obsession with the strange rituals of the Catholic church.Inspired by actual events, Patricia Stewart's essays reveal how she opened her heart and soul in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi to help Hurricane Katrina-ravaged homeowners. She introduces you to Alicein (pronounced Allison) Wonderland who explains her hippie-inspired name and why she opened her Mockingbird Café in a small Mississippi town.On a more serious note, Negroes into the Schools will take you to a street corner in Little Rock, Arkansas to witness this turning point in Civil Rights history. If you've had it with the world of politics, here is your chance to turn the tables in Piss Off a Politician: Vote. One of her deeply personal essays is about her father, who loved to spend his entire one-week vacation enjoying the World Series in his living room. You won't be able to put his book down until you've read the last word.
