What exactly is Spanish Fly? In the words of the author of the best selling Canadian novel of the same name:

“Spanish Fly is a beetle and it’s used to incite mating among livestock and what it generally does is it irritates the urinary tract, which causes bulls to get agitated and it will lead to mating. But in humans it’s very dangerous to take real Spanish Fly, so all Spanish Fly is placebo.”

Curious to know how that will come into play in the novel? Even if you’re at the half way point, like me, don’t worry. There are hints, but no spoilers in this entertaining interview. Check out Ferguson’s 2007 chat  CTV news.
