About Merrily to the Grave
https://neglectedbooks.com/?p=5547<br><p>Kathleen Sully published 17 novels between 1955 and 1970. She was <br> compared to Muriel Spark and Brigid Brophy. John Betjeman called her <br> “above all things a born writer.” In 1960, John Davenport wrote, “If she<br> is not among the leading English writers of the day, she is certainly <br> among the most arresting and original.” Her play, “The Waiting of Lester<br> Abbs,” was one of Lindsay Anderson’s first London productions. Alan <br> Nicholls, a Melbourne critic, wrote that “Kathleen Sully … always does <br> something unexpected with a novel.”</p><p>Until a few days ago, I’d never heard of her. I suspect you haven’t either.</p><p>I came across her name in a list at the back of Margaret Crosland’s survey of 20th century English women novelists, Beyond the Lighthouse<br> (1981). Doing a little more digging, I quickly discovered a few things.<br> In the space of 15 years, she managed to write over a novel a year, all<br> of them published by Peter Davies. None of them are in print or have <br> ever been reprinted. A couple appear to be utterly unattainable outside a<br> few libraries. A few that are for sale fetch thousands of dollars. And <br> one of them, Merrily to the Grave, is available on the Open Library.</p><p>That seemed like the right place to start.</p><p>Merrily to the Grave is set in a run-down rooming house in Brighton. This is the Brighton of Graham Greene’s Brighton Rock<br> — dreary, dismal, with a few glitzy attractions and a lot of people <br> just hanging on for dear life. Whether pensioner, two-bit performer, <br> shopgirl, prostitute, drunk, or thief, one thing unites all the <br> residents of Hesta Blazey’s on Eastley Crescent: failure. They’re all <br> just a few pounds away from the street, always hovering on the edge of <br> “self-pity, shame and desolation.” The house smells of “kippers, dust, <br> onions, hair-oil, sopa, turpentine, bath cubes, floor polish (though <br> nothing looked polished), human sweat and cat.”</p>
