Media Reviews

"Great understanding and depth of feeling." -New Statesman

"Handles tricky material with conviction and assurance." -The Guardian

"I enjoyed every sensitive page." -Paul Bailey, The Times Literary Supplement

"This is an original and haunting first novel, a serious study of a deep homosexual relationship between a rich painter of thirty-nine and a sophisticated and witty eighteeen-year-old. The subject is treated in depth and is finely characterised." -Pamela Hansford Johnson (novelist wife of C.P. Snow)

Author's Bio

Stephen Benatar was born in 1937 in Baker Street, London-and in the block of flats where H. G. Wells and Arnold Bennett once lived; one of these days there'll have to be a third important plaque beside the other two! Benatar is married, with four children, but now openly gay and living with a male partner.
