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.Auszeichnung : isbn searchedFormats : EPUBHas Cover : YesAll Identifiers : isbn:9780241979754Num of Aut : 1Number of Formats : 1Number of Words in Auth: 2Original Source : Mirc New Files 02 16 I AWörter : 70470Record ID : 6862Single Author : William BoydSorted Author by LN, FN: Boyd, WilliamTitle Length : 030Title Parm A : The Dreams of Bethany MellmothTitle Parm B : (Title Parm D : The Dreams of Bethany MellmothTitle Parm F : The Dreams of Bethany MellmothUncomma Author : William Boyd
