The Leather Boys - Eliot George

ANTHONY BLOND 1961

FIRST PRINTING

LONDON, UK

COVER ART BY OLIVER CARSON

The leather boys are the boys on the bikes, the boys who do a ton on the by-pass. For their expensive machines, they need expensive leather jackets. They are an aimless, lawless, cowardly and vain lot with a peacock quality to their clothes and hairstyle.

The problem of these working-class boys with big wage packets and nothing to do is the background to The Leather Boys which is the story of two of them, Dick who lives with his widowed grandmother and Reggie who married Dot when he was 17.

After a row with his wife Reggie goes to stay with Dick in his grandmother's house; their friendship develops into love and they break away from their gang to rob a local cinema together.

The author of The Leather Boys does not treat homosexuality as a personal or social problem but takes for granted that the love between these two inarticulate young men could exist between two human beings at any time at any place.

The climax of the story is impelled by the forces of the times and the place in which they move-the psychological pressures and the transient, indefinite air of the south London suburbs.

What she found was a gutter world of juvie crime and sordid sin, primitive, raw, and shameful. And she surrendered to it-for she had no choice. And one outrage on her body was followed by another, until finally she was part of the slime of the passion jungle, a lust-mad creature becoming a-

The secret sounds of women deprived...

Linda was not yet eighteen, yet this was her life. The metallic clang of a cell door. The hysterical sobbing of a fellow prisoner who had been beaten by a sadistic warder. Even when she slept the gray life of prison crept around her. She heard the harsh voice of a lady-lover warning her, "What you need's an old woman to take care of ya, so play it easy, kid, and be nice to me." She saw the flash of a switchblade and caught a glimpse of a face ripped and bleeding. Linda had been convicted of no crime. She was in protective custody. Yet this was her life-this was prison.

How those stray teen-agers

learn to be tramps

while still thinking of

themselves as lonely kids!

When that attractive boy found young Audrey on the beach, she had to accept his proposition. She was broke, practically naked, and far from home. But she had not counted on his father lusting for her, too.

Alone and frightened, Audrey suddenly found herself caught up in a household of men and women to whom sex was just a pastime. They passed their partners around as casually as they passed the drinks at cocktail time.

Then Audrey came under the influence of a red-headed, green-eyed woman who taught the youngster twisted love, impure love. Only then did Audrey awaken to the kind of life she had let herself in for-to the pit of sexual corruption opening at her feet...
