About This Book

Every woman has considered murdering her mother at least once. The quirky, verse-scribbling, passion-seeking narrator of Carla Tomaso's Matricide, however, has actually tried it. Now she's got five cats (each left behind by a different ex-lover), no good reason to get out of bed, and a bad attitude. In this clever, compulsive tale of modern lesbian life, Tomaso turns her sharp eye on the most charged relationship of all - with compelling results. Matricide is a darkly delicious concoction of secrets, lies, and unconditional love - and loathing.
