Our Cassanova having had a share of affairs, elects not to do this. He's aware he is more powerfully attracted to certain people than is normal, and that such conquests fade over time, from days to a few years, but the highs experiences compensate for any of the trouble it bring him. But what makes this very different, is that there's almost no physical contact, he enjoys such acts, but the allure of the chase, the connection of tow souls across the ether is what he finds so special. Spending vast fortunes on a few fleeting moments of honesty with such partners is worth any price - and of course in the future it's not exactly hard work to earn more. Each novella covers a different scenario and time in his life - another man's wife kidnapped on the moon; a politician's earnest desire to vote against competing family pressures, an attempted scam (this was very clever) and finally an bitter and jealous 'rival' who has misunderstood everything cassanova stands for.
This could have been crass and/or course, and manages to be neither, elevated instead with a deft touch and a light imagination of possibilities. I'm not normally a romance reader, and don't generally like the novella format, but linked together in this manner it was really quite enjoyable - perhaps partly by novelty but worthy of note nonetheless.… (plus d'informations)
