Now, luckily for us, we can enjoy her compassionate characters and poignant prose in her novel A RECIPE FOR BEES. This book backtracks through the life of main character Augusta and her family, as they struggle over land, love, and ultimately for life. TBR Senior Writer Jana Siciliano asks Dargatz about the autobiographical aspects of her novel, her intimate relationship with bees, her thoughts on marriage, love, and prejudice then and now in this telling interview. TBR: Please explain, for those who aren't as familiar with your book, how closely related A RECIPE FOR BEES is to your actual life experiences? GAD: TBR: How is the story of Karl and Augusta fashioned after your own parents? And how did this book bring them back together after having been divorced for years?

"Dunk the dead by lightning in a cold water bath for two hours and if still dead, add vinegar and soak for an hour more." from The Cure for Death by Lightning "My mother was hit by lightning when she was a girl," she recalled in 1996. "She talked about ghosts and premonitions. I was surrounded by stories of a time that completely disappeared." Anderson-Dargatz does for the family farm or ranch in B.C. what many authors have already done for rural life in the prairies or smalltown life in Ontario, magnifying the elements of life that are special, revealing, in that process, some of the psychology of the region. From the work of born-and-raised-in-B.C. novelists such as Anderson-Dargatz, Jack Hodgins and Anne Cameron, it's possible to surmise that constancy is not an option in British Columbia. It is a place for conflicts, epiphanies and assorted transformations. The Cure for Death by Lightning. Toronto: Knopf Canada, 1996. A Recipe for Bees. Toronto: Knopf, 1998.

A Rhinestone Button [3/06] (6.5) (For book club) I started out liking this book, especially the main character, Job. I was charmed by his sweetness and innocence, and fascinated by his synthenasia, which is a condition where an individual sees sound as colours. Job lives on the family farm where he looks after the animals, helps out his neighbours, bakes as well as any woman in the community, and goes to church regularly. When his down-on-his-luck, freeloading, lazy brother shows up with his shrew of a wife and shady son (wow - how's that for an unbiased opinion?), things take a turn for the worse. It's as if Job's uncomplicated, quiet life gets snatched away and replaced by the stress and pressure his brother bring to bear on him. Part of it is the brother's fault - he wants a quick solution handed to him, but doesn't want to fix the long term problems, but Job shares part of the blame, too. Job never stands up to them, never fights back, and never, ever, speaks his mind. He goes along with everything, even if privately he is ill-disposed towards it. There was something of the biblical to this story. Was Job's faith being tested, like his namesake? And how did he fare? And what the hell was with all the water fowl in the story? Was there some oblique reference to Job's ability to not let things get to him too much, like the proverbial water on the proverbial duck's back?
