The City and the Pillar.
First edition of the author's third novel.
A milestone in LGBT literature, The City and the Pillar is significant for its sympathetic portrayal of a homosexual protagonist, defying social norms post-World War II. It is also recognised as one of the definitive war-influenced gay novels, being one of the few books of the time to deal directly with male homosexuality.
