Thomas Howard believes he is about to retire to a life of ease but the mysterious Mr. Ridley sells him a chair called The Book Traveller, which takes him on an emotional roller-coaster journey through his favourite Classic books and into the murky depths of his terrifying past. As his past unfolds his volatile relationship with the beautiful, charismatic but tormented Chinese/Hawaiian girl, Heather Lee reveals obsessions of drug addiction, adultery and crime which led to heartbreaking tragedy. The travel back through time places Thomas in a position to view his past through the lens of each character whose persona he assumes, giving him a deeper understanding of himself and of the world around him.
