Alan Hollinghurst - The Line Of Beauty - ENGELS

It is the summer of 1983, and young Nick Guest, an innocent in the matters of politics and money, 
has moved into an attic room in the Notting Hill home of the Feddens: Gerald, an ambitious 
new Tory MP, his wealthy wife Rachel, and their children Toby and Catherine. Nick had idolized 
Toby at Oxford, but in his London life it will be the troubled Catherine who becomes his friend 
and his uneasy responsibility.


At the boom years of the mid-80s unfold, Nick becomes caught up in the Feddens' world. In an era 
of endless possibility, Nick finds himself able to pursue his own private obsession, with beauty 
a prize as compelling to him as power and riches are to his friends.
