Akhenaten

I suspect that seeing the 1985 production of Glass's opera may have suggested to Alan Hollinghurst the idea of giving Akhenaten a presence in his gay novel. In The Swimming Pool Library Hollinghurst spells 'Akhnaten' in the same unusual way as Glass does, and the sculpture that is the prototype for Lord Nantwich's was illustrated in the programme.
