Jasmine Man

Set in Toronto, Paris and Tunisia, Jasmine Man addresses issues of identity, family, art, culture and colonialism. What begins as a tentative exchange in a Paris park between Amy and Habib soon develops into a passionate affair. Amy, a wife and mother, is forced to make difficult decisions about her and her family's future in the wake of the steamy liaison. With Jasmine Man, author Lola Tostevin ultimately and deftly subverts the conventions of the traditional romance novel, creating a world where possibilities abound for all.
