Summary:
"
Margot
Fedoruk
was born a prairie girl, whose only exposure to seafood was the stained flesh of smoked goldeye served cold with mashed potatoes on stifling Winnipeg nights. Then, at age twenty-three, she broke free from her stormy Slavic-Jewish upbringing and set out for the wilds for British Columbia. There,
Margot
, planted trees topless, marched her steeltoed boots across the burn landscape, and met the love of her life -- a burly, red-headed sea urchin diver. A reborn west coaster, she embraced her new life and the ocean's bounty -- fresh scallops plucked from the sea, wasabi-covered sashimi smouldering on her tongue, and the exotic orange roe of the red sea urchin. This is the story of a family, whose livelihood depends on a spiny round creature that clings to the bottom of the sea, and the woman at the centre of it, clinging precariously to her identity as a modern-day fishwife. An unforgettable memoir infusedd with mouth watering recipes, 'Cooking Tips for Desperate Fishwives' is equal parts love story, part survival story, part meditation on family dysfunction." --Back cover.
