Dreams of Bethany Mellmoth, Paperback/William Boyd

This short story collection explores the random encounters that bring the past to the surface, the decisions that set life on an irrevocable course, and the hesitant failures to act on the moment that people live to regret. Philandering art dealers, couples wondering where it all went wrong and a woman on a journey of self-discovery experience these aspects of life's narrative, across this powerful return from one of contemporary literature's most respected voices.
