Description

Radclyffe Hall will always be famous for The Well of Loneliness, her groundbreaking novel of lesbian love. But it was Adam’s Breed which won her the most acclaim at the time of publication in 1926, winning both the James Tait and the Femina Vie Heureuse prize for best English novel.

Set in London’s Soho around the turn of the twentieth century, a child is born to his Italian mother above her parents’ salumeria, or delicatessen. She dies giving birth, and this is a crime which her mother, the steely Teresa Boselli, can never forgive. She and her husband name the boy Gian Luca. Her mother would not reveal the identity of his father, and he is never given a surname.
