Praise for Double Honeymoon
Evan Connell, author of the widely acclaimed Mr. Bridge and Mrs. Bridge, has a sure touch when it comes to taking the pulse of the average quiet-living man. His newest novel charts the course of an extraordinary adventure, the love affair between Karl Muhlbach, father of two, widower, a rather pedestrian insurance executive of middle years, and Lambeth Brent, a beautiful and unpredictable young woman. The affair, because of Lambeth’s strange and erratic behavior, is unsettling to Muhlbach, shocks him out of his routinely ordinary life, bewilders him as he tries to deal with the mercurial but always enticing and ultimately tragic Lambeth. Connell’s perceptions of the odd pair, of the shadings and intricacies of Muhlbach’s feelings as his life is subjected to youth and change are subtly, beautifully and wryly realized. A fine novel of today’s Everyman.” Publishers Weekly
Evan Connell, of course, could not write a graceless sentence . . .” Kirkus Reviews
