Hardback. Condición: Good. Betty Quan's full-cast dramatization of Timothy Taylor's sizzling first novel reveals the dark side of fine dining. Alessandro Juiliani stars as Jeremy Papier, a brilliant young Parisian-trained chef, who will do almost anything to keep his high-end Vancouver restaurant, Monkey's Paw Bistro, afloat. Jeremy, who views the cooking industry in terms of gang warfare, is a self-styled Blood, a believer in preparing unpretentious dishes from fresh, local ingredients. He has nothing but contempt for the Crips who bow to every passing food fad. But when his latest financial scam fails, Jeremy is forced to strike a deal with the devil in the form of Dante Beale (played by Scott Hylands), the owner of an undeniably Crip chain of gourmet coffee shops.

Hardcover. Condición: As New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. First U.S. Edition. STANLEY PARK, Timothy Taylor's first novel, was a Canadian bestseller, and a finalist for both the Giller Prize and the Rogers Writers' Trust Prize. At once a mystery, a romance, and a scaldingly funny satire of the "fooderati", Taylor weaves together the brightly colored strands of his story with unerring skill and prodigal invention. It's a comic novel of the first order, and the welcome arrival of a strong, very entertaining new voice in fiction. As new, unread copy, in fine, mylar-protected dust jacket. L56.…

Hard Cover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. First Edition. 1st. Edition. Near fine in dust jacket. Grey boards, black quarter cloth, silver foil to spine. Canadian author; shortlisted for the Giller Prize. Set in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. "What's local in a world that is becoming one global monoculture? That's the question confronting Jeremy Papier, the Vancouver chef at the center of Taylor's comic debut novel. Jeremy divides chefs into two types: the transnational Crips, who mix, say, Chilean farm-bred salmon and kimchi, without compunction; and Bloods, who are purists, stubbornly local in their food choices. Along with his friend Jules Capelli, another Blood, Jeremy runs the Monkey's Paw Bistro, making meals from mostly local ingredients for local foodies. Storm clouds lie on the horizon, however. Jeremy is deep in debt. To get by, he scams some $2,000 with the aid of Benny, a customer-turned-girlfriend. The scam backfires, and Jeremy has to turn to Dante Beale, an old family friend and the owner of a national chain of coffee houses, for money. Dante redesigns the bistro, turning it into a potential Crip palace. Jules is fired. Jeremy, under contract, remains. Turning for solace to his father, an anthropologist whose major project is living with the homeless in Stanley Park, Jeremy is reluctantly drawn into his father's work and the investigation of a decades-old mystery involving two children killed in the park. Along the way, he becomes fascinated by cooking for the homeless, and the joys of preparing squirrel, raccoon and starlings carry him into a glorious prank, which he plays at the opening of Beale's redesigned bistro. Taylor has written a sort of cook's version of the anti-WTO protests, striking a heartfelt and entertaining blow against conformity." -- Publishers Weekly. Book.…
