Home Fires

In 1989 Kenneth Radu's first novel, Distant Relations , won the 1989 QSPELL Prize for Fiction and was shortlisted for the Books in Canada/W.H. Smith First Novel Award. The Ottawa Citizen called it "a remarkable first novel." With his new novel, Home Fires , Radu has created a rambunctious, crazy, intense, and poignant story that moves faster than the speed of light. Nick has a house in the suburbs, two sex shops in Montreal, a chip on his shoulder, and an insane obsession with fire. Brian is a debonair success until he throws it all away by advertising for sex partners in the personal columns of the newspaper. Jacques is interested in making as much money as a young man with a sculpted body can make. And Roger is a down-and-out reformed alcoholic. No holds are barred in this operatic novel about the lives of contemporary men-and the women who put up with them. This is Kenneth Radu at his most daring.Radu, Kenneth is the author of 'Home Fires' with ISBN 9781550650310 and ISBN 1550650319.
