At seven o’clock on Saturday evening, the women’s washroom off the lobby of the Hotel Vancouver is full. All the cubicles are occupied, and three females are washing up at the basin: a child aged one or two, her young mother, and an older woman. They look astonishingly like each other, and they all look astonishingly like Carol Shields.
These facts about the mating rituals of garden-dwellers were gathered from Guests in Your Garden: Facts and Folklore About Bugs, Slugs, and Other Garden Creatures, written by Michele Davidson and illustrated by Eve Corbel, published by Arsenal Pulp Press in Spring 2001.
