About the book
An anthology of eleven short stories by the author of The Blue Afternoon explores the themes of love and desire, ambition and despair, in such works as "Cork," "Alpes-Maritimes," and the title story set during the shooting of a low-budget Hollywood film.
Praise for The Destiny of Natalie 'X'
Whatever the refracting device, Mr. Boyd's ability to zero in on ordinary human foibles and woes--daydream delusions, cultural dislocations, emotional smash-ups--is swift and sure.... his eccentric wit and restless intelligence exert a powerful appeal.
