No Love for Johnnie (Peter Finch)
by Wilfred Fienburgh
Published by Arrow, 1960
Paperback/Softcover (232p ; 140g)

Captain Johnnie Byrne, M.P. was a success. He was the man whom people tipped for the highest political honours; the press and the country followed his meteoric career from a mean Midland street to the bench on which Gladstone and Disraeli sat. An eager, clever, ruthless man about to win out -that was how the world saw him.

But inside he was afraid-desperately afraid of failure. Accused by a war-time comrade of cowardice! bound to a sexless marriage he made an anguished attempt to find re-assurance. This savagely frank story rips the mask from the face of a man at the top and lays bare his passionate and pathetic affair with a girl half his age.

One critic wrote, 'this is the most utterly cynical book on politics ever written', but it is more than that. It is the frightening tale of a man whose mind was obsessed. Fate dealt him three cards:
Happiness, Success, and Failure. He tore up the first, he thought he held the second but had he looked he would have seen the last-staring him in the face ..

NO LOVE FOR Johnnie caused a sensation in the Election of 1959. and the author, so tragically killed before its publication, had staked his brilliant career on it.
The book has a sincerity that shocks.
