On Tuesday, 18 June at 6pm, in celebration of Pride, Waterstones Cambridge is honoured to host biographer and editor Peter Parker who will discuss the first part of a major new anthology. In Some Men In London, he explores what it was actually like for queer men in London in this period, whether they were well-known figures such as John Gielgud, ‘Chips’ Channon and E.M. Forster, or living lives of quiet – or occasionally rowdy – anonymity in pubs, clubs, more public places of assignation, or at home.
