Book Description
The 1995 Booker Prize finalist finally back in print. Alan Hollinghurst's hypnotic and exquisitely written novel tells the story of Edward Manners, a disaffected 33-year-old who leaves England to earn his living as a language tutor in a Flemish city. Almost immediately he falls in love with one of his pupils, but can only console himself with other, illicit affairs. With this novel, Hollinghurst exposes us fearlessly to the consequences of unfulfillable, annihilating desire.
Editorial Review
Middle-aged Edward comes to a Flemish city to teach English only to fall in love with one of his pupils and to become involved with an obsessive artist who is playing a dangerous psychological game. Readers who relish psychological depth will find this includes plenty of drama and intrigue. -- Midwest Book Review --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
