Round The Corner: Being The Life And Death Of Francis Christopher Folyat is a novel written by Gilbert Cannan and published in 1913. The book follows the life of the titular character, Francis Christopher Folyat, who is a young man from a wealthy family in England. Folyat is a talented artist and musician, but he struggles with mental illness and addiction. The novel explores his relationships with his family, friends, and lovers, as well as his attempts to find meaning and purpose in his life. As Folyat’s mental health deteriorates, he becomes increasingly isolated and desperate, leading to a tragic and unexpected ending. The book is a poignant and insightful portrayal of a troubled young man and the challenges he faces in a society that values conformity and stability above all else.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
