I must be another one of the small number of Brophy collectors out there! A most enjoyable post Michael, thank you.

Thanks, Miles! I hope we get to compare notes some time.

This reminds me that I should read John Brophy’s Liverpool novel City of Departures (1946) which has been on my shelf for a long time in a first edition with the remnant of a jacket. I don’t think I can attach it in a comment but will email it.

Only read The Snow Ball and a couple of essays (why?) - especially as this enjoyable piece made me want to read more. So thanks!
