On the strength of novels such as Futility and The Polyglots, William Gerhardie was hailed as the most brilliant writer of the 1920s. Yet by 1940 he had ceased to publish, and increasingly towards the end of his life he lived as a recluse. In this biography, the author rediscovers one of the most unjustly neglected of English writers.
