I WAS NEVER HERE AND THIS NEVER HAPPENED

From a painfully funny tale of young Dorinda foiling a murderous thug with a very well-placed bite to an other-worldly account of sacred rituals, to an hysterically surreal encounter in a modern supermarket, this is a roller-coaster ride through a truly remarkable life.
