Winner of the Man Booker Prize 2004, The Line of Beauty is a perfectly realized tale of our times.

A stunning portrait of modern England from one of Britain's finest novelists.

Young, gay, William Beckwith spends his time, and his trust fund, idly cruising London for erotic encounters. When he saves the life of an elderly man in a public convenience an unlikely job opportunity presents itself - the man, Lord Nantwich, is seeking a biographer.
