Rogers Writers' Trust Fiction Prize: "I just wanted a complete contrast," said the London, Ont.-based Dublin native, who won the Rogers Writers' Trust Fiction Prize and was a finalist for the Man Booker Prize and a Governor General's Literary Award for 2010's "Room.", according to CTV. Donoghue discovered that during the inquest into the shooting death of Bonnet, Beunon claimed her estranged beau Arthur Deneve had taken her baby boy away and she didn't know where he was and - After the massive success of her harrowing novel "Room," about a young boy held captive in a shed with his mother, Irish-Canadian author Emma Donoghue didn't want to write anything child-related. But that changed during the research process for her new novel, "Frog Music," which is based on the true story of French burlesque dancer/prostitute Blanche Beunon and the murder of her cross-dressing female friend Jenny Bonnet in late 1800s San Francisco.
