A review by clmckinney
The Folding Star by Alan Hollinghurst

4.0

There were a lot of elements of this book that I thoroughly enjoyed. The main character felt younger than this thirty something age as he often acted like a newly out gay man. I am taken back to my youth and how I became infatuated with cute gay boys when I went out to bars. All the gay bits, I really liked a lot. I didn't love Hollinghurst's tangents about an artist that lasted way too long. But even with the sidetracking, I would give this a solid 4/5.
