The Hireling
L.P. Hartley
As Hartley did not write his "homosexual novel" until near the end of his career, The Hireling tells the story of a chauffeur who falls in love with an aristocratic woman. This novel is about England in the nineteen-twenties, about county aristocracy, about the cruelties of a class system that Hartley (who also wrote "The Go-Between") remembers with an outrage so tempered that it often seems a kind of fondness.
