The Inner CircleThe Inner Circle
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 lifeÂs true calling: sex. As a member of KinseyÂs Âinner circle of researchers, Milk (and his beautiful new wife) is called on to participate in sexual experiments that become increasingly uninhibitedÂand 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 doesnÂt 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 relationshipsÂbecause, in the end, Âlove is all there is.Â
