Description du livre Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. First Edition. 1975 hardcover with dust jacket. FIRST EDITION stated, published in the UK by Paul Elek. Very clean UNREAD COPY. Pages are bright, white, and unmarked and binding is good. Very minor rubbing to jacket only. Very nice! "This Autobiography, a completely honest and explicit account of the emotional and sexual part of the author's life that he has hitherto habitually kept concealed, is a moving and surely immensely significant human document. THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF AN ENGLISHMAN holds a mirror to the social mores of a whole period, culture and class, the repercussions of which remain most profoundly with us even today, in spite of the so-called 'permissiveness' of our age. 'Y', a well-known author now in his sixties, was brought up in a liberal non-conformist home by parents at once benevolent and remote. At public school and Cambridge he formed strong emotional attachments to members of both sexes; he later conformed to social conventions by embracing marriage and parenthood. Although he was emotionally close to his wife, the marriage was a failure on the physical level. This side of his nature achieved fulfillment only in a brief affair outside marriage that first revealed the ecstasy of complete physical release to a man already near middle age. After the shattering experience of his wife's sudden death, 'Y' followed his earlier inclinations, experimenting with male attachments until he found joyous satisfaction once more in an association that broke up, however, in its turn, just short of bitterness and tragedy.".

Description du livre Hardback. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. First Edition. This copy is in fine condition bound in grey cloth covered boards with bright gilt titling to the spine. This copy is bright, tight, white and square, there is a small neat signature to the f.e.p. The unclipped dustwrapper is in fine condition International postal rates are calculated on a book weighing 1 Kilo, in cases where the book weighs more than 1 Kilo increased postal rates will be quoted, where the book weighs less then postage will be reduced accordingly. An author's use of a pseudonym begs the question of his book's authenticity, particularly in subjects whose taboo nature can tempt him or her into salacious fiction. However, one is left in no doubt about this superb book's veracity. It chronicles the raw, vulnerable life of a sensitive man, probably homosexual in his physiology, who was born in the second decade of the twentieth century into a repressive home environment which negatively impinged on his sexuality. The English public school system, with the barely suppressed sadism of its institutional corporal punishment, did nothing to mitigate these influences in his formative years, and the book relates the author's tragic shyness, both homosexual and heterosexual, even though society would have been deemed his fruitful marriage quite successful at the time. This despite his unsuccessful attempts at affairs and his leanings towards being physically chastised. We are told that he was, at the time of writing, a successful intellectual professional, and this is wholly consistent with the way he writes, his modestly disarming and articulate frankness impressing continually.
