The Spell

The Spell is Hollinghurst's most polished & entertaining novel to date. Here he marries Jane Austen's delicious social asperity with a sly eroticism in a story as romantic & surprising as anything he has written. Set in London & the idyllic countryside, the narrative tracks the interlocking passions of four men. As each character falls successively under the spell of love or drugs, country living or urban glamour, The Spell unfurls into a richly witty picture of modern gay life ...& of all human affairs of the heart.Hollinghurst, Alan is the author of 'The Spell' with ISBN 9780670883561 and ISBN 0670883565.
