Résumé

Peter Fortune is a boy who likes to daydream. He dreams about swapping bodies with his cat and with his baby cousin, but he gets so lost he's unsure where one fantasy finishes and the next begins. Cartwheeling through these transformations, Peter eventually finds himself in an adult body experiencing the adventure of falling in love.

The Daydreamer Résumé

The Daydreamer Ian McEwan

In these seven interlinked stories the grown-up Peter reveals the secret journeys, metamorphoses and adventures of his childhood. Living somewhere between dream and reality Peter experiences magical transformations when he swaps bodies with William, the family cat, the baby Kenneth and, in the final story, wakes up as a twelve-year-old inside a grown-up body and experiences the adventure of falling in love.

The Daydreamer Avis

Exhilarating * Independent *
Ian McEwan writes stories of exquisite precision and clarity * Evening Standard *
As far-fetched and funny as anything by Roald Dahl * Vogue *
Perfectly judged, scary, poignant, meaningful; he makes it look easy, but this is brilliantly achieved * Guardian *
These stories are so good, as acute about childhood preoccupations, and at times as disturbing as you would expect * Harpers & Queen *
