Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
A rollicking collection of short stories depicts the bizarre sideshows of humanity lost to traditional history as seen through obscure scraps of historic records, from the tale of an Irish soldier who is tricked into marriage, to a seventeenth-century countess who ran away to Italy disguised as a man.
Review:
"One of the best books of the year thus far. Like Andrea Barrett, Donoghue has staked a claim to her own distinctive fictional territory."
Kirkus, 03/15/2002
Review:"This unshowy but deeply generous book confirms that Emma Donoghue is an original writer with a real talent for using historical fact to shape and augment her own creativity. Not least is her ability to entertain, as well as educate...."
Alex Clark, Times Literary Supplement, 06/07/2002

Book Description: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2002. Paperback. Book Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: n. Brand New, Hardcover with dust jacket, clean, tight, unmarked, Fiction Donoghue finds her inspiration for these wry, robust tales in obscure scraps of historical records: an engraving of a woman giving birth to rabbits; a plague ballad; surgical case notes; theological pamphlets; an articulated skeleton. Here kings, surgeons, soldiers, and ladies of leisure rub shoulders with cross-dressers, cult leaders, poisoners, and arsonists. Whether she's spinning the tale of an Irish soldier tricked into marrying a dowdy spinster, a Victorian surgeon's attempts to "improve" women, a seventeenth-century countess who ran away to Italy disguised as a man, or an "undead" murderess returning for the maid she left behind to be executed in her place, Emma Donoghue brings to her stories an "elegant, colorful prose filled with unforgettable sights, sounds and smells" (Elle). Here she summons the ghosts of those women who counted for nothing in their own day, but who come to unforgettable life in fic.
