	Bookreporter.com - STANLEY PARK by Timothy Taylor
		STANLEY PARK, Timothy Taylor's debut novel, revolves around the stress-packed life of Chef Jeremy Papier who divides his culinary colleagues into either "Bloods" or "Crips." A "Blood" himself, Jeremy reveres the preparation of classic French bistro cooking.
		In STANLEY PARK Taylor has managed to fuse a crime novel with a workplace comedy and nap it all with a sauce of sociological theories of homelessness.
		Stanley Park is as much a character here as it is a setting, infused with a real sense of malevolence.
