Teeth In Sink, Knickers on Landing

I hope you laugh a lot and maybe cry a little and even try to understand the workings of my bipolar mind in this, my one and only book. The pages of which I recall with love, laughter and tears, the wondrous people who have helped weave the tapestry of my strange, troubled life.If you are perplexed by the wacky title, you will find the answer with Ebony, a majestic black lady of the night, who was the dearest of friends. Turn the pages and there you will find a butt-naked butcher manacled to the grooming table in a poodle parlour! Turn yet again to meet Suki AKA Gladys, an old-time (much used) working girl screaming as she climbs off a corpse who was doing his thing just moments ago.And just why did Jean Jeanie have a frothy bottom? Intrigued? Well, just turn my pages and all will be revealed.

Zara Duvall was born in Cheshire as the bombs of World War Two fell all around. Unbeknown then, she was already blighted by bipolar, which she has suffered from all of her 80 years of life. She describes it as both a curse and a gift. When not in its strangling mental grip she is very funny, articulate and extremely creative. Because change confuses her she has lived in the same house since 1962 and has brought it to a remarkably high standard. Her vocation in life is to rescue all types of animals in pain or distress – rehabilitate, heal and re-home them with people who deserve a wonderful pet. Her hobbies include jewellery design, DIY and gardening. She lives in solitude with Lola, her latest dog, as her constant loved companion.
