The Stranger at the Palazzo D'Oro: And Other Stories Paperback - 2004
by Paul Theroux
Writing with a deep understanding of the frailties of men and boys, Theroux fills his latest novel with his typically effortless but devastating descriptions of people and places, presenting a brilliant portrayal of aging and decay, a shocking tale of sensuality in a golden age.
Summary
From the best-selling author of Dark Star Safari and Hotel Honolulu, Paul Theroux's latest offers provocative tales of memory and desire. The sensual story of an unusual love affair leads the collection. The thrill and risk of pursuit and conquest mark the accompanying stories, which tell of the sexual awakening and rites of passage of a Boston boyhood, the ruin of a writer in Africa, and the bewitchment of a retiree in Hawaii. Filled with Theroux's typically exquisite yet devastating descriptions of people and places, The Stranger at the Palazzo D'Oro evokes "the complexities of matters of the heart with subtlety and grace" (People).
