It chronicles the joy of gaining equal marriage rights for same-sex couples, tales of Icelandic lagoons, Provincetown adventures, and much ado about lesbians of a certain age.

And through it all, she finds a way to make it provocative, political, occasionally heartwarming, and reliably hilarious. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFeaturing Fay's latest magazine columns plus new, never before published material, \u003ci\u003eFried \u0026amp; Convicted\u003c\/i\u003e is a pleasure for longtime fans and new readers alike. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eCome along for the ride--you'll be happy you did  \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFay Jacobs\u003c\/b\u003e spent thirty years in Washington, DC working in journalism and public relations.
