Más información sobre el libro

Monocle - so nicknamed because he went to university - works as a sous chef in a London gastropub. Terrorized by hoodlums (his co-workers), he daily survives the scalds and wounds meted out by Racist Dave and sadistic head chef Bob. In the kitchen, acts of ferocious revenge and touching kindness are served up, driven by dark fears and desperate dreams. But out there, waiting patiently at his table, is the Fat Man and his strange, insatiable hunger . . . 'Wroe depicts the literal underworld of a restaurant kitchen with wit, vigour and gleeful, necessary profanity.' New York Times 'A brutally funny look at the world of professional cooking.' Gary Shteyngart, author of Super Sad True Love Story 'A greasy, hilarious tale of loyalty, revenge and dark appetites. A gripping look behind the kitchen wall.' Shortlist 'A complete page-turner. Reminiscent of Kitchen Confidential but with an entirely fresh voice.' Thomasina Miers
