Alan Hollinghurst is one of Britain's most esteemed literary novelists. The recipient of numerous literary awards he won the James Tait Black Memorial Prize in 1994 and, in 2004, the Man Booker Prize, for his novel The Line of Beauty, a tour de force envisioning of the Thatcher Years as an era of doomed romance. His books meditate thoughtfully on Englishness, class and culture, ageing, desire and inter-racial relationships. They are also notable for their frank treatment of gay sex, and the dilemmas of gay men, whether searching for love, thrills or coming to terms with mortality in the AIDS crisis. His last novel The Stranger's Child was longlisted for the Man Booker in 2011.
