Fiction
Like Michael Cunningham in The Hours, Colm Tóibín captures
the extraordinary mind and heart of a great writer.
Beautiful and profoundly moving, The Master tells the story
of a man born into one of America's first intellectual
families who leaves his country in the late nineteenth
century to live in Paris, Rome, Venice, and London among
privileged artists and writers. In stunningly resonant prose, Tóibín captures the loneliness
and the hope of a master of psychological subtlety whose
forays into intimacy inevitably failed those he tried to
love. The emotional intensity of this portrait is riveting.
