New edition of the rare roman à clef, The Girls of Radcliff Hall, circulated privately by Berners in 1935 under the pseudonym Adela Quebec, depicting himself and a circle of friends, among them Cecil Beaton and Oliver Messel, as lesbian schoolgirls at Radcliff Hall (in punning allusion to the author of The Well of Loneliness).
