Description
Two short novels starring lovable chefs Rickey and G-man, living and cooking in pre-Katrina New Orleans.
These two short novels, The Value of X and D*U*C*K, bookend Poppy Z. Brite's cheerfully chaotic series starring two chefs in New Orleans. The Value of X introduces G-man and Rickey, who grew up in New Orleans' Lower Ninth Ward and who are slowly realizing there are only two important things in life: cooking and each other. Rickey's parents aren't quite so taken with the boy's plans and get him an impossible-to-resist place at the Culinary Institute of America.
Includes a new afterword by the author.
