The Hill: A Romance of Friendship
()
About this ebook
The Hill is one of a trilogy of British boarding school novels that captured the public imagination. As with Tom Brown's Schooldays and Lord, Dismiss Us, the novel struck a chord in the hearts of Englishmen of its generation--in this case, the generation that would soon be sent to fight the First World War. As a beautiful story of friendship, the novel retains its relevance today.
The Hill is really much more complex, much deeper than a simple rivalry between two boys over a third. As a rare book that specifically deals with 19th century/early 20th century boarding school romance between boys, it’s a significant addition to the library of historical gay fiction enthusiasts. -Hayden Thorne, Speak Its Name
