Product Description
It is by no means clear how much control Yorkshireman Jeremy Davenant has over his own destiny. For one, he's convinced that the blueprint of his future already exists on a page ripped from a random book (an encyclopedia it transpires). Romantic, fatalist, quixotic, he blithely teaches Shakespeare with forged credentials at a Montreal university until a single glimpse of a dark lady sends his life spinning into chaotic mishap and obsession. 'Exuberant and smart, RED-ROSE CHAIN signals the arrival of a new, sophisticated comic author who combines John Irving's inventive virtuosity with Tom Green's contempt for everything stuffy in our culture' NATIONAL POST 'RED-ROSE CHAIN is a wonderfully lively picaresque love story. An artfully spry black-comic campus novel (LUCKY JIM rides again) meets street-wise Bad Boy fiction in a most attractively deft intertextual weaving of seventeenth-century drama and modern urban satire' Valentine Cunningham (Booker Prize judge) 'Moore takes on all the labyrinthian twistings and metaphysical explorations of an Eco or a Borge'' QUILL & QUIRE 'Montreal's answer to Woody Allen' Upath.com 'Take equal measures of Milorad Pavich, Russel Hoban, David Lodge and Guy Vanderhaeghe' VANCOUVER SUN
