Description
Sandra Shamas is a brilliant comedic storyteller who pokes fun at her own (and our own) foibles in an earthy, engaging, honest and deadly funny way, never losing sight of the fundamental importance of loyalty, affection, and love. In book form, her three smash hit shows” My Boyfriend's Back and There's Gonna Be Laundry; The Cycle Continues; and Wedding Bell Hell” published as A Trilogy of Performances, were shortlisted for the Governor General's Award and the Stephen Leacock Award for Humour.
In Wit's End, Shamas faces life's next hurdle after marriage, divorce” and moves from the city to a farm. Urban angst meets the real darkness of nature in a delightful story of healing and creating a new life.
