NEW BOOK FROM MINNESOTA’S FUNNIEST FEMINIST
Bonny’s America: Cut the Woman Some Slacks!,

Available: Now. Publication Date: October 1, 2008.
July 30, 2008: What’s wrong with America? Bonny Belgum knows, wielding a hilarious pen in her new book, Bonny’s America. Funniest feminist of the humorous essay, nobody messes with this Minnesota mama. She's a straight-shooting, smart and sassy, homespun smart-aleck. She's “Buffalo Cow Woman.” Read her book this election year—and laugh when you want to cry.
“Bonny Belgum’s voice is straight-shooting, sharp and sassy, a cross between Maureen Dowd and Erma Bombeck.” –Susan Shapiro, author of Lighting Up and Five Men Who Broke My Heart
“Queen of the humorous essay form, Bonny looks at everyday life from the edges with an idiosyncratic wit that makes you laugh and ponder at the same time.”—Mollie Hoben, Co-Founder/Publisher, The Minnesota Women’s Press
“Hilarious! This homespun smart-aleck wisecracks her way through such modern horrors as office work, healthcare, homeownership, mindless flag-waving and other American lunacies.”—Greg Mandel, humor columnist for The Oregonian’s “Edge” and author of High Hat
“In the midst of the mundane, she sees the funny, and occasionally…the profound.”—Russell Peterson, author of Strange Bedfellows: How Late-Night Comedy Turns Democracy into a Joke
Bonny Belgum is Minnesota’s funniest feminist, and a frequent contributor to the Minneapolis Star Tribune. Her columns have appeared in the St. Paul Pioneer Press, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, and The Minnesota Women’s Press. This is her first book.
