Ready To Catch Him Should He Fall (Five Star Paperback S)

Born in 1958, Neil Bartlett has spent twenty-five years at the cutting edge of British gay culture. His ground-breaking study of Oscar Wilde, Who Was That Man? paved the way for a queer re-imagining of history ; his first novel, Ready To Catch Him Should He Fall, was voted Capital Gay Book of The Year; his second, Mr Clive and Mr Page, was nominated for the Whitbread Prize. Both have since been translated into five European languages. Listing him as one of the country's fifty most significant gay cultural figures, the Independent said Brilliant,beautiful, mischievous; few men can match Bartlett for the breadth of his exploration of gay sensibility . He also works as a director, and in 2000 was awarded an OBE for services to the theatre.
