ABOUT THE
BOOK
|
|
A work of fiction about the thing that most distracts and delights us - love. The Feast of Love unearths the myriad manifestations of extraordinary love between ordinary people; men and women speak of and desire their ideal mates; parents seek out their lost children; adult children try to come to terms with their own parents and, in some cases, find new ones. In vignettes both comic and sexy, voices resonate with each other, disparate people joined by the meanderings of love, and come together in a tapestry that depicts the most irresistible arena of life. |
