E.H.Shepard decorations. All of the old friends are in attendance.

beloved character such as Paddington Bear, and Peter Rabbit as an
essential part of our literary heritage. Whether you're 5 or 55,

'Brilliantly clever . . . mercilessly funny.' - Kenneth Allsop,
"Daily Mail"
'One of the most brilliantly written books since the war.' - Ian
Fleming, "Sunday Times"
' A] clever and pitiless novel.' - Neil Ascherson, "Observer"
' An] extremely promising and funny first novel.' - "New Yorker"
'I laughed until I cried. Benedictus is a dazzling new wit and a
blazing new talent.' - Patrick Dennis
David Benedictus was only twenty-three when his shock-filled,
highly controversial first novel was published in 1962. In "The
Fourth of June," Benedictus shows what it was like to have attended
Eton College, one of England's most prestigious schools. Among its
hallowed buildings, a boy is savagely beaten into paralysis by his
House Captain, a bishop spends his evening spying on a chaplain's
half-dressed daughter, and a housemaster is seduced by a desperate
mother. Condemned by some reviewers as a farrago of sex, snobbery,
and sadism, "The Fourth of June" nonetheless met with rave reviews
from other critics, who proclaimed Benedictus one of the most
promising new novelists of his generation, and went on to be a
bestseller on both sides of the Atlantic.
This new edition, the first in more than 30 years, includes an
introduction by the author.
