Pao_1The prose is rich and refined, the (many) characters are deep and interesting, and though at times the English upper class/Home counties/literary world setting feels stale, it is pleasure to read.
The Stranger's Child, Alan Hollinghurst
8/10
Spoke 🏳️🌈What seems so expected for one generation is so different in the light of another—and there is no taking wins for granted. #TheSparsholtAffair #AlanHollinghurst #BookChat #bookstodon
Hollinghurst guides the reader through generations of friends and family, via a narrative that is shared by so many more. #TheSparsholtAffair #AlanHollinghurst #BookChat #bookstodon
Fiona NBook no. 5: The Sparsholt Affair, by Alan Hollinghurst.
Hollinghurst's writing is beautiful. This story spans six decades, revolving around events that are only alluded to, including the 'affair' in the title, but which have a profound effect on several of the characters. A poignant view of the changing attitudes towards homosexuality over the decades.
Recommended.

Torsten HesseUnd noch ein Mitbringsel aus dem #LCB von „Kleine Verlage am großen Wannsee“. Whoopwhoop! 😉 Dass ich Hollinghurst gelesen habe, ist inzwischen schon etwas her. Ich bin gespannt, wie mir dieser Roman von 1994 so gefallen wird. 🤓
