A philandering art dealer tries to give up casual love affairs - seeking only
passionate kisses as a substitute. A man recounts his personal history through
the things he has stolen from others throughout his life. A couple chart the
journey of their five year relationship backwards, from awkward reunion to
lovelorn first encounter. And, at the heart of the book, a 24-year old young
woman, Bethany Mellmoth, embarks on a year-long journey of wishful and tentative
self-discovery.
The Dreams of Bethany Mellmoth depicts the random encounters that bring the past
bubbling to the surface; the impulsive decisions that irrevocably shape a life;
and the endless hesitations and loss-of-nerve that wickedly complicate it. These
funny, surprising and moving stories are a resounding confirmation of Boyd's
powers as one of our most original and compelling storytellers.
