  • The Harness Room is a 1971 novel by the British writer L.P. Hartley. A retired colonel about to remarry decides that his seventeen-year-old son needs toughening up and while away on his honeymoon has his chauffeur, an ex-guardsman to instruct him in boxing and other sports in the harness room. The two men come to develop a bond. Concerned about the reception of a book that was more explicitly homosexual in theme than his earlier works, Hartley insisted to his publisher that it was done "in a more discreet manner than it is in many modern novels". Hartley considered that "I actually took more trouble over The Harness Room than any of my novels". (en)

Preocupado com a recepção de um livro que era mais explicitamente homossexual no tema do que suas obras anteriores, Hartley insistiu com sua editora que isso foi feito "de uma maneira mais discreta do que em muitos romances modernos". Hartley considerou que "Na verdade, tive mais problemas com The Harness Room do que qualquer um dos meus romances". (pt)
