Karl Muhlbach, hero of Evan Connell's previous novel, The
Connoisseur, has a new obsession--a beautiful, nubile
girl-about-New York named Lambeth Brent, whose puzzling background
and swinging activities lead Muhlbach into dark areas, causing new
revelations of himself as a man to emerge.
The mysterious bonds between opposites come into sharp relief as we
follow the course of Muhlbach and Lambeth's relationship. An
uncomfortable visit to the ballet, an abortive country vacation,
brief but sparkling happy moments, and Muhlbach's final, shocking
discovery add up to a mosaic of vignettes, rendering the characters
startlingly real.
"Double Honeymoon" explores the built-in dangers of a love affair
between a cautious, conservative, middle-aged widower and a
neurotic, high-strung, self-destructive girl. But far from just
another May-September romance, the book is a keen examination of
the dilemma posed by two people who are attracted to each other,
yet unable to come together because of the profound differences in
their backgrounds and outlooks. With a sure hand, Evan Connell
demonstrates just how profound those differences can be.
