An international bestseller and winner of the prestigious Whitbread Award for Best First Fiction, it is considered a classic of contemporary literature and taught widely around the world, in courses ranging from core undergraduate classes to women's studies and queer studies.\u003cp\u003eJeanette is a bright and rebellious orphan who is adopted into an evangelical household in the dour, industrial north of England. Her youth is spent embroidering grim religious mottoes and shaking her little tambourine for Jesus. But as this budding missionary comes of age and comes to terms with her unorthodox sexuality, the peculiar balance of her God-fearing household collapses. Jeanette's insistence on listening to truths of her own heart and mind--and on reporting them with wit and passion--makes for an unforgettable chronicle of an extraordinary passage into adulthood.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBorn in Manchester, England, \u003cb\u003eJEANETTE WINTERSON \u003c\/b\u003eis the author of more than twenty books, including the national bestseller \u003ci\u003eWhy Be Happy When You Could Be Normal?\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eOranges Are Not the Only Fruit\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Passion\u003c\/i\u003e.
