About this book
Edmund White creates an imagined society of fading country houses, occupied streets and sophisticated social circles. Into this world comes Gabriel, a provincial newcomer whose inexperience draws him into relationships shaped by ambition, attraction and power. Blending social satire with romantic invention, the novel follows his education in a city where manners can conceal betrayal and desire unsettles the established order.
