THE INNER CIRCLE 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."
