Dark, moving and eccentric, GENTLEMAN'S RELISH is Patrick Gale's second collection of subversive and exhilarating short stories
'The short story form suits Gale's ability to zoom in on the smallest nuances of a relationship'
Kate Saunders, The Times
A lonely prison governor's wife develops a sudden passion for an unexpected hobby; a cookery connoisseur suspects his homophobic father and brothers are attempting to manipulate him and looks for revenge; a grandmother offers hair-raising family tales to her abandoned grandchildren; a sex demon in an old casket gruesomely transforms a honeymooning couple.
In his second collection of short stories, Patrick Gale creates worlds where the making and breaking of relationships -between mothers and fathers, husbands and wives, lovers and strangers - offer unforgettably dark and moving twists to these utterly unpredictable lives.
What readers enjoyed about GENTLEMAN'S RELISH:
'He is a writer who is a gay man, not a gay writer who just writes about being gay - his writings are about all aspects of human behaviour and activities. Highly recommended' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
'Patrick Gale is a writer with an exquisite eye for the human condition. This collection covers ground which Gale fans will recognise instantly - parents vs children and differing ideas of propriety, love and loss, calm waters hiding turbulent cores, the quiet dignity of loss and disappointment. I loved them' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
