The Inner Circle

"Fine, new, clean, crisp and unread first printing, SIGNED to the title page by Boyle with his name only in fresh russet boards with just a light push at spine-foot, else fine in a fine dust jacket. In The Inner Circle"" Boyle brings his many exuberant storytelling gifts to Kinsey and his associates lives and participation in their studies on sexuality."""

From Publisher:

Fresh on the heels of his "New York Times" bestselling and National Book Award- nominated novel, "Drop City," T.C. Boyle has spun an even more dazzling tale that will delight both his longtime devotees and a legion of new fans. Boyle's tenth novel, "The Inner Circle" has it all: fabulous characters, a rollicking plot, and more sex than pioneering researcher Dr. Alfred Kinsey ever dreamed of documenting . . . well, almost.

A love story, "The Inner Circle" is narrated by John Milk, a virginal young man who in 1940 accepts a job as an assistant to Dr. Alfred Kinsey, an extraordinarily charming professor of zoology at Indiana University who has just discovered his life's true calling: sex. As a member of Kinsey's ?inner circle? of researchers, Milk (and his beautiful new wife) is called on to participate in sexual experiments that become increasingly uninhibited?and problematic for his marriage. For in his later years Kinsey (who behind closed doors is a sexual enthusiast of the first order) ever more recklessly pushed the boundaries both personally and professionally.

While Boyle doesn?t resist making the most of this delicious material, "The Inner Circle" is at heart a very moving and very loving look at sex, marriage, and jealousy that will have readers everywhere reassessing their own relationships?because, in the end, ?love is all there is.?
