The Life to Come and Other Stories

The collection features stories by an author whose work often explored overtly homosexual themes, resulting in most remaining unpublished during his lifetime. Instead, these narratives were shared privately with a select group of influential contemporaries, including notable figures like Christopher Isherwood and Siegfried Sassoon. This context highlights the author's boldness in addressing topics that were taboo at the time, showcasing a significant yet hidden aspect of literary history.
