Maeve Binchy delivers a timely and topical tale on the fickle nature of
docu-soaps in Quentin's in an age where everyday people are becoming
overnight celebrities via the medium of television,. Ella Brady is a documentary
film-maker who wants to bring the tale of the eponymous Dubln restaurant
to the screen. Quentin's has had its fair share of ups and downs over the
years and has become the meeting point for a lot of characters, including
some familiar faces from previous Binchy novels. As Ella makes more and
more headway with her documentary, the secrets, betrayals and stories of
love that emerge make her question whether or not she wants to bring the
tale of Quentin's to the screen after all; especially as she is also forced
to confront a devastating dilemma from her own past. Regarded by many as
the true queen of the romantic Irish drama, Binchy has once again produced
another fine page-turner that will please her army of loyal fans and hopefully
win her many more. She has a real eye for character and exploring the often
painful choices people are forced to make in their everyday lives. This
is a tale of normal people, ordinary folk and the heartaches that have made
them who they are. Fans will welcome the return of some familiar Binchy
characters and Ella is a strong, likeable heroine, a woman who, in exploring
the lives of these people, is forced to consider some choices she has made
in her own life. So make a reservation at Quentin's, sit back and relax--you'll
be in very good company |
