Monica Ali
The 10th anniversary season of Talking Volumes continues when Kerri Miller welcomes author Monica Ali to talk about her latest novel In the Kitchen at the Fitzgerald Theater on Wednesday, May 19th, 2010 at 7:00 p.m. Gabriel Lightfoot is an enterprising man from a northern England mill town, making good in London. As executive chef at the once-splendid Imperial Hotel, he is trying to run a tight kitchen. But his integrity, to say nothing of his sanity, is under constant challenge from the competing demands of an exuberant multinational staff, a gimlet-eyed hotel management, and business partners with whom he is secretly planning a move to a restaurant of his own. Despite the pressures, all his hard work looks set to pay off. Until a worker is found dead in the kitchen's basement. It is a small death, a lonely death -- but it is enough to disturb the tenuous balance of Gabe's life. Elsewhere, Gabriel faces other complications. His father is dying of cancer, his girlfriend wants more from their relationship, and the restaurant manager appears to be running an illegal business under Gabe's nose. Enter Lena, an eerily attractive young woman with mysterious ties to the dead man. Under her spell, Gabe makes a decision, the consequences of which strip him naked and change the course of the life he knows -- and the future he thought he wanted.

Monica Ali is the daughter of English and Bangladeshi parents. She moved to England at age three. Her first novel, Brick Lane, is an epic saga about a Bangladeshi family living in the UK, and explores the British immigrant experience. It was shortlisted for the 2003 Man Booker Prize for Fiction, and made into a film, released in 2007. Monica Ali lives in London and was named in 2003 by Granta magazine as one of twenty 'Best of Young British Novelists'.

Talking Volumes is a partnership of Minnesota Public Radio and The Star Tribune, in collaboration with The Loft Literary Center.

All tickets are $20.00. Discounts are available for Minnesota Public Radio members, Star Tribune Talking Volumes Members, and Loft members.
