Recensione:
"'As is typical of the best classics, he has fashioned a universal tale of sexual obsession, love and death out of a particular life'" (Marie Claire)
"'Even in its sexiest moments, it never loses its intellectual poise. Dry witticisms intersperse sweaty couplings...The Folding Star is a novel of considerable breadth.What gives it its depth is the candour, wit, sensuous immediacy and melancholy intelligence applied to it'" (Peter Kemp Times Literary Supplement)
"'Few writers' prose can throw a party as easily as retire to the library as Hollinghurst's...[He ] is on as fine a form in this novel as his first'" (Tom Shone Spectator)
"'Grand 19th-century fin-de-siècle lusciousness, a seamy 20th-century carnality and a generous pinch of true wit'" (Sunday Times)
