Summary:
"Paul Hiebert's critical biography of the wholly mythical but irrepressible and irresistible Sarah Binks, 'the Sweet Songstress of Saskatchewan,' who gave her life to poetry and died a martyr to the muse, is a hilarious analysis of her career and influences, along with a memorable selection of the poet's tenderest, most inspiring writings. This masterpiece of satire won the 1947 Stephen Leacock Medal for Humour. Paul Hiebert was born in 1892 in Pilot Mound, Manitoba. He was a professor of chemistry at the University of Manitoba,"--Provided by publisher.
Awards:
Winner of the Stephen Leacock medal for humour, 1947.
