Book review: The Spell by Alan Hollinghurst

This author's almost obsessive attention to realism will enchant readers with beautiful language and fascinating characters. I loved The Spell, and I felt like I knew these people. In this novel, the acclaimed author of The Swimming Pool Library and The Folding Star looks into the overlapping lives of four men, closely examining the complexities of human relationships.
