"The Ploy of Cooking" is without a doubt a masterpiece. Three threads are expertly interwoven: an off-the-wall JFK assassination possibility that makes far too much sense to dismiss; a young man's coming of age saga in which he follows his destiny through almost mystical permutations and sexual encounters to come into a sense of who he is; and a very savvy manual for seduction through collaborating to produce gourmet meals. Wehrenberg is highly regarded for his daring and imagination, but from my point of view this early novel is a greater masterpiece than the later ones for which he is better known. Ten thumbs up!
--Richard A. McDonough

The "Ploy of Cooking" is right on, or so I've heard, but even better than the sex is the theory for the JFK assassination. Mr. Wehrenberg's hypothesis is truly fascinating because it all makes sense!

The Ploy of Cooking is without doubt the most entertaining JFK assasintion theory that I have read and woven within the story of the main characters' quest to get laid; it is suprising that this book has not yet been made into a movie.
