Friends of promise : Cyril Connolly and the world of Horizon / Michael Shelden

by Michael Sheldon

To afford their rent, the elderly lodgers of a boarding house engage in genteel prostitution. The landlady struggles to keep these activities a secret from her daughter in this satire of the English obsession with respectability.
