Currey is a poet who has pleased poets: T.S.Eliot told him in 1945 that his collection This Other Planet was 'the best war poetry I have seen in these last six years'; Dylan Thomas was so taken with the wit of 'Pelican, St James's Park' that he recited it from memory on a traffic island in front of the BBC just after he had met R.N. Currey for the first time; Roy Campbell, Guy Butler and Jack Cope claimed his work for South Africa.

Toynbee Hall (Routledge Revivals)
First published in 1984, Toynbee Hall, The First Hundred Years is not just a centenary study, but a personal contribution to the continuing history of Toynbee Hall, which is the Universities’ settlement in East London, and an institution that has inspired respect and affection. Its pioneering role as a residential community living and working in the heart of one of London’s most deprived areas has been maintained. Called a ‘social workshop’ by its late chairman John Profumo, Toynbee Hall promotes ventures such as Free Legal Advice, the Workers Educational Association, and the Whitechapel Art Gallery. The book looks at the social changes that have taken place over the 100 years since Toynbee Hall was founded in 1884, but also notes curious parallels, with persistent patterns of poverty, deprivation, squalor and racial separation which characterise the area. Questions about the facts and perceptions of poverty, the nature of community, the visual as well as the social environment, and the roles of voluntary, local and national statutory policy still require answers.

I had too many secrets. I wanted out of this closet. People all over the world were coming out. We could see them on national TV and books had been written. What was so difficult about it? I had to be free to talk with my grandchildren about it. I didn't want them to ever experience anything like this. There were more doors to open and bricks that needed to be blasted. What if my grandchildren changed their opinions of me when the truth was told? I couldn't hide anymore, my hands needed to be free. I had lived a half of a century and the one person who knew the truth had already forgiven me. Now, it was my time to do the same.
