Flight Into Camden
Acclaimed as a remarkable young writer for his first novel, This Sporting Life, David Storey was awarded the 1961 John Llewelyn Rhys Memorial Prize for Flight Into Camden. This moving story is recounted by Margaret, the daughter of a Yorkshire miner, who falls in love with a married teacher and goes to live with him in a room in Camden Town, London. Many critics have observed an almost Lawrentian fidelity in the descriptions of their love-making and the intricacies of their emotional response to one another. But in the end family ties prove too strong for an ambiguous relationship which begins to disclose a chasm of emptiness and bitterness.
