LAUGH NOW CRY LATER
Two stars keep not their motion in one sphere
Its London 2014 and Hal Lancaster son and heir of Henry Duke of Lancaster is in a holding pattern his mother is dead his father is dying or remarrying or both his siblings are fighting his internship is pointless and nobody will leave him alone
Everything is as it should be and yet nothing is right Over the course of a year of partying drinking and flirting to dubious consequence Hal is tested by brutal family legacies Catholic guilt and the terrifying possibility of being loved The House of Lancaster will never be the same
Crackling with intelligence and wit Henry Henry is a brilliant recasting of the Henriad in which Hal Lancaster is a queer protagonist for a new era Allen Bratton arrives as a successor to Waugh and St Aubyn with this lush stylish novel of family legacy and what it means to be alive today
