Award-winning poet Roger Bell brings us a whimsical narrative set in the hamlet of Lafontaine, Ontario. The work grew out a commonplace notion that in order to keep animals out of the gardens, the best method was to spread human hair or resort to the "deployment" of human urine around the perimeter. This led to a series of poems that Bell was sharing with audiences at readings. When listeners discovered he was writing these poems, people came forward to tell him more "pissing stories." Bell has turned these into a delightfully funny book, The Pissing Women of Lafontaine , and infused the poems with the kind of mirth that marked the writing of Stephen Leacock.
