Unbeknownst to him his ship engaged in actiondoes indeed sink the Bismarckwhilst he was suffers from seasicknessunaware of the heroics being performed on the upper decks. His homosexualitythough unacceptable to his family and some contemporarieskindled a passionate and eccentric way of life in which he was to meet some extraordinary and often dangerous characters.George's turbulent relationship with his mother was intensified by his father's emotional waywardness. Indeedthere was little love lost between father and son and their lives were spent in perpetual discordwhich was to end not in reconciliationbut with the old man's death.This the same father whooften as a result of his son's tantrums and blackmailfunded George Hayim's uninterrupted indolence. With a frankness that both shocks and entertainsthe author recounts his erotic history not unlike an 18thC rake.The story of how Genet gave George the nickname 'Posso' could have come from the pages of 'Querelle de Brest' itself.The author's most passionate love affair prompted him to write a novel whichdespite being lost in manuscriptwas rewritten and published to great acclaim.That novel'Obsession' was described by Gore Vidal as 'a unique work; a story of sexual obsession that is marvellously funny'.In his own turnGeorge has now been immortalized in the novels of Andrew Harvey the distinguished poet and travel writer.He is the original for the erotic and diva-like Adolphewhose genius presides over 'Burning Houses' and 'The Web'. George's naughty life conjures up a world of stolen pleasures bitter-sweet Mediterranean nightshectic urban adventures andabove alla world in which 'impossible friendships' flourished with an intensity which shames our own prosaic times.
