The Inner Circle

Paperback. Pub Date: 08 2005 Pages: 560 Publisher: Penguin Fresh On The heels of his acclaimed novel Drop City which was a New York Times bestseller and a finalist for the National Book Award TC Boyle has found another perfect SUBJECT for his hyperactive imagination. The Inner Circle makes use of Alfred Kinsey’s controversial studies on human sexuality-and the fascinating details of Kinsey’s life and those of the men who worked for him-to create an irresistible tale about the interaction between our human and animal natures. While The Inner Circle gives full play to this erotically charged material (and should be read naked. according to the Chicago Sun-Times). it is at heart a moving and compassionate look at sex. marriage. and infidelity that will have readers everywhere nodding in recognition.
