The Food of Love
By Anthony Capella
This was a very different kind of book. It was kind of a sleazy love story, but with a twist. It has a lot of Italian slang in it, with footnotes, as to what the translation is (rated X), and recipes in the back. The ladies in the plot were all pretty shallow - two dimensional characters. You just knew a guy wrote it! The food descriptions however, were exquisite! Even food I would never taste sounded beautiful. When I was looking for a picture of the book online, I discovered Anthony Capella's books all appear to center around FOOD! This one was his first Novel.
