Leith Derwent [pseud.] : Circe's Lovers

'In June, a three-volume novel titled "Circe's Lovers" appeared, written by Leith Derwent (the pseudonym of John Veitch), a friend of Osborne. Interested in this novelist principally because Osborne knew him, Arthur wrote a lengthy letter to his friend praising the novel as "a very clever book... powerfully and thrillingly written" but "too sensational" for his taste.'
