Love In The Time Of... Hugues Francois Recamier

The working title of this collection was Pêle-Mêle, a French word signifying a quantity of disparate objects put together. There are fifty-three stories here, including some very short ones. This variety testifies to the lushness of Hugues Récamier's imagination. James Peele's foreword states: "Love in the Time of... is a book where Hugues Récamier creates characters that jump off the page and shake your sensibilities. In the reading process you may laugh, you may cry, but you will most definitely think. Hugues Récamier uses the world as a backdrop to bring out some controversial issues, but still leaves room for you to answer questions."
