L.P. Hartley bio: In full Leslie Poles Hartley, (born December 30, 1895, Whittlesey, Cambridgeshire, England—died December 13, 1972, London), English novelist, short-story writer, and critic whose works fuse a subtle observation of manners traditional to the English novel with an interest in the psychological nuance. After he got his degree at the University of Oxford (1922), Hartley wrote criticism for the literary reviews and published short stories, many of them fantastic or macabre. A collection, Night Fears, appeared in 1924. His novella Simonetta Perkins (1925) was a light exercise in cosmopolitan manners, with a plot that recalls Henry James’s “international” stories. The Killing Bottle (1932) was another collection of stories. The Shrimp and the Anemone (1944), his first novel in 19 years, was the first part of a trilogy about a brother and sister, Eustace and Hilda. The first volume treats their childhood. The Sixth Heaven (1946) and Eustace and Hilda (1947) follow them in adulthood. Adept at depicting childhood, Hartley focusses the action of another of his novels, The Go-Between (1953; filmed 1971), on a 12-year-old boy who inadvertently causes a tragedy through his ignorance of the complexity of adult relations. Relations between brothers and sisters were further explored in My Sisters’ Keeper (1970). Hartley’s most complex and fully realized novel is The Boat (1949), in which he explores the struggles of a crowd-avoiding individual in England during World War II, when group effort and identification were the norm. A volume of essays, The Novelist’s Responsibility, appeared in 1967 and The Collected Stories of L.P. Hartley in 1968. eng Internet Archive HTML5 Uploader 1.6.4 Old time radio radio drama audio drama horror sci-fi science fiction old time radio audiobook spoken word pulp horror short fiction stories Fear on Four Man in Black suspense thriller BBC British L P Hartley: Short Stories (BBC Radio) UPDATED 4/26/2022 nickpalmer57@gmail.com 2020-09-10 16:45:01 2020-09-10 16:45:01 [curator]validator@archive.org[/curator][date]20200910164518[/date][comment]checked for malware[/comment] 1988 hifidelity
