Beside Myself

"A canny study of split personalities, family and roads not taken." -Kirkus Reviews What would you do if there were three of you? That's the startling question at the heart of Beside Myself, a novel about the decisions that you didn't make, the lives that you didn't lead. Beside Myself presents a world where the author comes into contact with-and eventually meets-three different versions of himself: they are all Jeff Gomez, but each one is different based on choices made at a critical juncture. One is married, one is single, and one has a family. As they each gradually discover the other, their various lives begin to overlap and, ultimately, become intertwined in ways they never thought possible. The three Jeffs also discover that this is not an isolated incident. The chapters of Beside Myself can be read in any order, or the reader can follow one Jeff at a time throughout the story. "You, as the reader, feel like you're in the driver's seat." -Literary Platform Review This description may be from another edition of this product.
