Byron Ayanogluis Love In The Age Of Confusion is a sexy romp
packed with mouth-watering descriptions of food, endless supplies
of ouzo, gags, and absurd collisions. In this fictional debut by
the well-known food-writer, pure laine Quebec locks horns with
moneyed Westmount when coquettish, street-wise Arletty
Daoust-Tremblay dazzles, then dumps, pampered scion and fledgling
experimental filmmaker Ari ePennyloafersi McLeod. But their
mothers, in odd alliance, have other ideas. Meanwhile, elsewhere,
the loversi fathers throw punches and speechify. Romantic comedy
meets political satire. Love In The Age Of Confusion is a tour de
force in which opposites attract, myth tussles with myth, and
delightful, even delicious explosions go off. Will the politically
confounded young lovers reconcile? You bet your kefi (thatis Greek
for joie de vivre) they will
Critical Comment
iA humorous semi-political romp... engagingly presented with]
much mouth-watering food....i
o Books in Canada, May 2002
iItis a time-honoured device, the English-French love story,
laden with symbolism. But no one before Ayanoglu has ever played it
so cleverly by the menu.i
o Gazette, June 2002
i... a delight, with dialogue that reads at a gallop, pinpoints
each character, and crackles with snappy put-downs and smartass
wit...blending screwball comedy with bristling social comment.i
o Globe & Mail, June 2002
iMontreal food writer Byron Ayanogluis fictional debut weaves
all the beauty, delight, and intrique of this fair city into a love
story of star-crossed lovers each coming from two extremes of the
political spectrum.i
