There is a new kind of man with only one thing on his
mind: cooking. The gastro-sexual male invests in exotic
cookware, knows the exact cooking temperature for
beef, and turns every amuse-gueule into nothing short of
foreplay. Carsten Otte presents a frank and humorous
portrait of this new and rapidly multiplying species. One
thing is clear, when a man develops ardent culinary
enthusiasm, the life of his family will change. But not to
worry, this new passion produces tasty benefits for all.
Carsten Otte is gastro-sexual – and that’s good.
A philosopher by education, he has authored three
novels and writes features, commentaries, and
articles for ARD. When Otte isn’t writing or speaking on the radio, he’s at his kitchen range – much
to the enjoyment, and to dismay, of his family.
