    About this ebook

    Narrated by a quirky Montreal photographer, Zoo is an intimate portrait of a friendship between two women, an unexpected incarceration, and a group of ‘at risk’ young boys who give an entire new layer of meaning to life’s choices. Arleen Solomon Rotchin, bestselling author of Sam’s Will, takes us to Palm Beach, Florida, looks through her viewfinder and with off-beat humour focuses on the chaos.
