The Swimming-Pool Library: A novel (Lambda Literary Award)

• Used Book in Good Condition

The dazzling first novel from the best-selling, Booker Prize-Winning author of <i>The Line of Beauty</i> and <i>The Sparsholt Affair</i>.<br><br> An enthralling, darkly erotic novel of homosexuality before the scourge of AIDS; an elegy, possessed of chilling clarity, for ways of life that can no longer be lived with impunity. <i>The Swimming-Pool Library</i> focuses on the friendship of two men: William Beckwith, a young gay aristocrat who leads a life of privilege and promiscuity, and Lord Nantwich, an elderly man searching for someone to write his biography and inherit his traditions.
