Donald Waterman tends to be distracted from his interest in antique furniture by his obsessive and ambivalent involvement with women -- virgin, married, divorced, widowed and unmarried in turn, in different seasons and cities. A reluctant adventurer, divided between Don Juanish and idealistic impulses, his complex memories recreate the temptations and neuroses of his challenging female friends, for example the divorcee's split self and the widow's death consciousness. In the end he faces loss of memory but traces of his quest for passion remain.
