Enchanted Boy is an autobiographical novel by Richie McMullen, published by Gay Men's Press in 1989. It describes his childhood from age five to fifteen in post-war working-class Catholic Liverpool. Richie is physically abused by his father, and becomes a rent boy for adult men as a form of escape. The novel was striking for its emotional honesty depicting "an abused boy turning to the rent scene not just for money, but for affection". The novel was followed by a sequel, Enchanted Youth (GMP, 1990), and formed part of the author's lifelong work to address male rape.
