The Line of Beauty by Alan Hollinghurst

‘The Line of Beauty’ is a novel of philosophical, subliminal depth and beauty that has sacred prose with a poetic voice rarely heard or written, it has a harmony that doesn’t only satiate the intellect, but touches the reader’s soul in a way many other novels haven’t.

Hollinghurst is a writer of keen observation and subtle commentary on the buzzing aristocratic life in London, which was even beautifully written in The Swimming Pool Library, but a notch higher in this piece of work.

‘The Line of Beauty’ is a novel to die for and a symphonic achievement that showcases delicate artistic taste and sense.
