Hutton, Robert.
Of Those Alone.
London: Sidgwick and Jackson, 1958. 1st printing. 235 pages.
'The story of an unashamed and unrepentant homosexual. Discovering his
tendencies early in life, he learnt first to accept and then to conceal them in
order to avoid the censure of society. A lonely and frustrated childhood was
succeeded by a rootless and inconsequential life, spent between Paris and
California, New York an the South of France. It was the life of a wanderer, in
appearance purposeless, and if the author managed superficially to have a good
time, it was largely because the edges were blurred by alcohol. He returned to
England a few years before the second world war.' - Front jacket flap. Good
hardcover in slightly frayed, stained, chipped and torn dust jacket with sunned
spine; some foxing on fore-edge. Former owner's name on blank front flyleaf.
