Summary "Subject to Change" by Ron Goulart is a science fiction novel written in the early 1960s. The story delves into the bizarre and surreal aspects of identity and transformation, exploring themes of self-discovery and the nature of reality through the lens of a unique narrative style. The book primarily revolves around the concept of physical transformation and its implications on personal relationships and societal norms. The plot follows Pendleton, a man returning to San Francisco after a two-month absence, eager to reconnect with his fiancée, Beth. Upon his return, Pendleton finds himself embroiled in a series of surreal events, revealing that Beth has developed the ability to transform into various objects and even animals, which she uses to fulfill her impulses of theft and experimentation. As Pendleton grapples with Beth's unusual behavior and her intense desire for freedom in self-expression, he is drawn into a chaotic emotional landscape filled with confusion and conflict. Their relationship is tested as Pendleton struggles to understand Beth's need to change and the consequences that arise, culminating in a dramatic and tragic confrontation that challenges the very essence of who they are.
