My oldest brother has met her many times and she is indeed treated like a Royal Writer or some other laureate In Canada. I first read "The Edible Woman" when I was 14 or something, and I thought (or was hoping it was) something dirty. I got to the end, and I remember thinking, "I don't think I can 'get' this yet," so I put the book aside and read it 2 years later. It touched me deeply. This author deserves all the acolades the world can heap upon her.
