	Patrick Hamilton - LoveToKnow 1911
		PATRICK HAMILTON (1504-1528), Scottish divine, second son of Sir Patrick Hamilton, well known in Scottish chivalry, and of Catherine Stewart, daughter of Alexander, duke of Albany, second son of James II.
		Hamilton fled to Germany, first visiting Luther at Wittenberg, and afterwards enrolling himself as a student, under Franz Lambert of Avignon, in the new university of Marburg, opened on the 30th of May 1527 by Philip, landgrave of Hesse.
		Hamilton was seized, and, it is said, surrendered to the soldiery on an assurance that he would be restored to his friends without injury.

	Comedy Central: Movies - Patrick Hamilton - Biography
		Patrick Hamilton was one of the more successful playwrights and novelists of the 1930s and '40s, and saw his two greatest plays turned into extremely popular movies.
		Hamilton's books, which all dealt with the seamier sides of lower-class life in England, were filled with vividly realistic dialogue and descriptions, and were populated by men and women in disturbed, psychologically warped relationships; indeed, one of his novels, The Midnight Bell (1929), was based upon his own infatuation with a prostitute.
		Hamilton was a man uniquely attuned to the dark side of human relations as a motivating force and, in many ways, was far out in front of the popular sensibilities and perceptions of his era, a fact reflected in the continued popularity of his work more than 40 years after his death.

	Patrick Hamilton Collection
		Patrick was the last of three children--Helen (known as Lalla to the family and Diana to her friends in the theater), Bruce, and Patrick--born to Bernard and Ellen Ad'le Hockley Hamilton.
		Although Bernard, Patrick's father, had inherited a considerable sum of money at age twenty-one, by the time Patrick was born very little of the inheritance remained, forcing Patrick to spend the latter years of his youth in a variety of middle-class boarding houses and rented rooms.
		Hamilton's interest in Marxism and his compassion for the "semi- proletariat," his term for people living life on the margins, explain his humanistic tendency to tell stories of the poor and underrepresented.

		Hamilton was sentenced as a heretic to burning at the stake but, far from burning brightly and briefly, the poor chap was made to suffer a slow and agonising death because the people carrying out the sentence screwed up big time.
		Hamilton was a great grandson of King James II, but in those days Royal connections were no guarantee of protection or immunity from the all-powerful Catholic Church which really ran (and owned) the country.
		Hamilton returned to Scotland, determined to spread the Lutheran word, and soon attracted the attention of Cardinal Beaton, Scotland's religious patriarch, who was less than delighted with the rising popularity of "dangerous" views such as his.

	[No title]
		Yet the very process that preserves Hamilton as a supporting character in the grand story of literary life - and especially literary Brighton life - stresses the man before the books; for the biography is so compelling and salubrious as to render the works themselves unread or half remembered.
		Hamilton's works are laced with what J.B. Priestly identified as "innocence, appallingly vulnerable, and (of) malevolance coming out of some mysterious darkness of evil." But this is slightly disengenuous: both the ghastly (but beautiful) Netta and the horrendous Mr Thwaites share a common, half-concealed lust for fascism.
		Hamilton is a deft chronicler of urban ennui and claustrophobia.

		Naturally the catalyst is drink, and Hamilton's dissection of her first experience of drunkenness is impeccable: "She felt the port trickling down inside, and it seemed that a kind of light fell upon her." He even allows us to feel some compassion towards her.
		Hamilton weaned himself off the women of Wardour Street, settled into married life and went on to write further great books, notably Hangover Square (1941) and The Slaves Of Solitude (1947), but his readership eventually slowed to a trickle.
		Patrick Hamilton was born on March 17 1904, and he approaches his centenary in undeserved obscurity.

	Patrick Hamilton
		HAMILTON, PATRICK, one of the first martyrs to the doctrines of the reformed religion, was born about the year 1503.
		He affected to be persuaded by Hamilton’s reasoning, acknowledged that his objections against the Romish religion were well founded, and, in short, seemed a convert to the doctrines of his unsuspecting victim; and thus obtained from him acknowledgements of opinions which brought him immediately under the power of the church.
		The infamous and most active agent in his destruction, Campbell was soon after Hamilton’s death, seized with a remorse of conscience for the part he had acted in bringing about that tragedy, which drove him to distraction, and he died a year after, under the most dreadful apprehensions of eternal wrath.

		I wouldn't like to argue who should be the victor between him and Patrick Hamilton, all I can say is that this is a very fine read indeed.
		Gorse is a totally repellent but fascinating character, and this novel oozes Atmosphere, and is also very funny in parts (the problems of dating for the first time never seem to change, and Bell's pretensions to being an intellectual are hilarious!).
		Hamilton may well have been past the peak of his powers by the time he wrote the Gorse Trilogy (good though they are, they don't come close to "Hangover Square" for sheer emotional punch), but these hard-to-find stories are well worth hunting down.
