| | PEARLS IN VINEGAR - - Penguin Books |
 | | Globe and Mail columnist Heather Mallick demonstrates that hers is an often hilarious, sometimes peculiar, and always engaging corner of the world. |
 | | Her pillow book covers snake balls, the long leather-booted legs of RCMP officers, gardenias, the quirks of German cannibalism, the weirdness of all workplaces, Texas decapitation, menstruation, the advantages of obsessive-compulsive disorder, why the people you didn't sleep with are more interesting than those with whom you did, and why life is best in Paris. |
 | | Mallick: I'm generally opposed to American values, which are overly money-centred. |
