PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Joseph Vincent Leo Coniglio (May 5, 1955 - ) an American novelist born at Niagara Falls, New York. With the passage of time, he has become an entire school unto himself for food journalists. It is a style that is distinctly always about and expressive of the real-life Joe Coniglio. Mr. Coniglio is an open minded connoisseur of food and drink. Mr. Coniglio enjoys telling great stories and sharing his own authentic recipes. His interpersonal point of view will make enlightened reading. It's a good ride. The campaign is a distant one, past the outer limits of mainstream USA. It's a lonely path outside the comfort zone of most armchair food and travel novelists. His quest for discovery is powerful. Coniglio pries stones the size of boulders making sure nothing goes unturned. He stands on wind blown bedrock and peers into the cracks and crevasses below and finds life. He hears sweet running water, singing birds and touches the tops of trees. (Anonymous). Joseph shares with his followers a direct writing style that appeals to women and men and delves into the human condition; mostly his own. Skin Side Down is a fun read, gentle and elegant at times or discourteously blunt and base, but always informative, reaching into the readers subliminal emotional and visceral fabric. Coniglio provides a magicians pitchblende of novel, autobiography, social criticism, philosophical reduction, surrealist free association and mysticism. Joseph might stir in a honeymoon lunch in Paris; deal kindly with a shy Yeti in frozen desolation over a bowl of tripe; shop the farmers markets of France; welcome cold war demons alongside the Soviets; sit down to the Seven Fishes; digging fence posts with the ghosts of Chinese laborers; walk the high wire act at Niagara Falls; or finds himself standing in his farm kitchen to the sounds of silence of intensely dining guests. His admiring dogs glaring by his feet. Every story comes with plenty of food and drink. Coniglio will keep you fueled with the images, flavors and aromas of his world. Your yearning will be quenched. His fiction possesses more than the mere kernel of truth with core accuracy deep at the heart. Or, one could say his style contains fictitious plausible constructions that will become future truths. His writing style is rich and colorful. [1] His most characteristic work of this kind is SKIN SIDE DOWN, THE SEARCH FOR ROUBIDEAU IN THE AMERICAN CULINARY OUTBACK; Revised First Edition.
