The book began with a painting, <em>Pussy Galore<\/em> by artist Peter Williams, which Crawford first saw on view at the gallery Paul Kotula Projects in Ferndale, Michigan, nearly a decade ago. Because the painting\u2019s title referenced a female character from a James Bond film, Crawford was inspired to write a novel with a heroine named Paula Regossy, which is an anagram of Pussy Galore. She did not stop there.<br \/>\nEach chapter in this book is Crawford\u2019s personal (but faithful) response to artwork by various Detroit-based artists and creative spaces. She conversed with, ruminated on and scrutinized the art and\/or the venue before she constructed the narratives.
