There is no attempt to present a single-sex universe. If The Audacity was a film (of course it’s not) it would not be like Lawrence of Arabia. The book is a story of one woman’s path from nowhere (sorry Sarnia), Canada to UK-based success on her own terms.
Tongue-in-cheek chapter titles include ‘How to Be Strange, Small-town Sisters’ or ‘ How to Let Your Friend’s Murder Define All Your Relationships’. Anecdotes on family, friendships, work, babies and tiny dog ownership all feature. Organised in loose chronological order, the book explores both mundane and creative realities in building a good life and career. Naturally, the disastrous choices make the most delicious morsels. That is, dished out like juicy gossip in the green room before a show.
The stories are served the way she likes to hear the latest.
In The Audacity Ryan offers longer tales, not bound by the short quips of stand-up. How to make mistakes and still get to a good place
