Picking up where her earlier memoir The Love Habit left off, Cumming recounts her decision to leave her second husband at the age of 35 and embark on a journey of erotic and emotional self-discovery. Traveling through places like Morocco, Egypt, Rome, and Paris, she engages in a series of relationships with men from a wide range of cultures and backgrounds. Her encounters are described with vivid detail and thoughtful reflection, revealing both the pleasures and complexities of desire, intimacy, and aging. Beyond her sexual odyssey, the memoir also touches on Cumming’s career as a translator and script adapter, adding further context to her life. Written with wit, honesty, and sensuality, The Love Quest is not just a record of erotic adventure but also a deeper exploration of connection, independence, and the human need for love.. Good+ in Poor dust jacket .
