A moving memoir chronicling the friendship of two gay men coming of age in 1950s Britain
*Shortlisted for The TLS Ackerley Prize 2024*'Wonderful ... For anyone who has ever dreamt of leaving a small-town childhood behind them, this is going to wring your heart. It certainly did mine'– Neil Bartlett, author of Address BookIn 1950s suburban England, a friendship bloomed between Jeremy Seabrook and Michael O’Neill – two gay men coming of age at a time when homosexuality was still a crime. Their relationship was inflected by secrecy and fear; the shadows that had distorted their adolescent years were never wholly dispelled long into their adult life. Lyrical, candid and poignant, this is a tale of sexual identity, working-class history and family drama. A memoir of unparalleled authenticity, Private Worlds is an elegy for a doomed friendship.
