ccKIMBERLY,
MÈRE DE DIEU— SUMMARY
ccThis is the
first-ever novel with a Playboy Playmate theme.
ccThe story
is set in the 1980s in Eau Claire, Quebec, a hamlet under the spell of
the current Playmate of the Month, Kimberly McArthur.
ccBut there
is trouble brewing. Some local representatives of feminism and religion
have united in an unholy alliance against Kimberly. And all this, just
when Eau Claire, after years of fruitless efforts, finally gets a girls
softball franchise. The giggly 10-year-old players hit upon the idea of
calling their new team the Eau Claire… Playmates.
ccRevolutions
have started with less. Losing the opener 20-0, in due time, of course,
the Playmates roar back. All thanks to Ruth (a.k.a. Babe Ruth), an anorexic
with a batting average of .000. She goes on to make the centerfold of
the Weekly Record as Playmate of the Month. Losers turn out to be winners
in this story.
ccTo top off
this exciting summer in Eau Claire, the Playmates go on a pilgrimage to
Fort Worth, Texas, hometown of the team’s patron saint, Kimberly
McArthur. The team manager, Chief, heads up the parade along with Lassie,
the dog, and his mates in their rusty old clunker. What happens in that
hallowed city changes tiny Eau Claire forever.
