Alan Hollinghurst is the author of four novels: The Swimming Pool Library, The Folding Star, The Spell, and the winner of the 2004 Man Booker Prize, The Line of Beauty.
Review
"Housman’s singular vision seized hold of the English imagination, inspiring not just a literary following but a generation of composers, like George Butterworth and Ralph Vaughan Williams, who sought to do musically what Housman had done with verse: to create a new and authentically English kind of song."
—New Yorker
