Klappentext zu „The Go-Between “
An invitation for young Leo to join a school friend at Brandham Hall - a world of privilege far removed from his own - for the scorchingly hot summer of 1900 appears innocuous, but Leo soon finds himself drawn into a dangerous, deceitful world of adult intrigue when asked to act as a go-between for two illicit lovers. The tragedy that ensues will reverberate for decades to come. A haunting novel about the strange journey from childhood to adulthood, The Go-Between is a truly unforgettable classic.

Autoren-Porträt von L. P. Hartley
Leslie Poles Hartley was born in Cambridgeshire in 1895, and was educated first at Harrow and then Oxford. His career as a writer began with short stories (his first collection Night Fears was published in 1924) and ran alongside his work as a prolific and highly regarded reviewer of fiction, writing for such magazines as the Spectator and the Sketch. His first full-length novel was The Shrimp and the Anemone (1944) and was followed by a succession of novels, including The Hireling (1957) and his final work Love-Adept (1969). While the majority of L. P. Hartley's work is now, sadly, out of print, The Go-Between remains the most enduringly popular and timeless of his novels, rightfully claiming its place as a classic.
