The sixth and final of Robert Hugh Benson’s 'mainstream' novels, 'Loneliness?' examines the life of a woman who sacrifices everything to be accepted by people who can see her only in terms of her singing ability and the roles she plays on the stage. She is abandoned by them when she can no longer fit into their preconceived ideas. Published posthumously in 1915, 'Loneliness?' may be Benson’s least known, yet one of his most insightful - and entertaining - novels. This edition features a foreword by Benson scholar Michael D. Greaney.
