The Heart in Exile

Why did Julian Leclerc commit suicide just as he has become engaged to a rich young woman? As he is forced to dip back into the underground London milieu he has left behind, will Dr Anthony Page, a psychiatrist, discover the answer to that question — and what more will he discover before he is fully satisfied he has resolved the mystery?

First published in 1953, The Heart in Exile is perhaps the most famous pre-Wolfenden British gay novel. The book takes the form of a thriller and a quest. The edition includes an introduction by Neil Bartlett.
