Beskrivning
George Friel was born in 1910 the fourth of seven children. He attended Glasgow University where he began to write. Until 1940 he worked as a teacher. After serving in the war he returned to live in Bishopbriggs where he resumed his teaching career. He wrote slowly and his three great novels were published between 1964 and 1972; The Glasgow Trilogy includes The Boy who Wanted Peace Mr Alfred MA and Grace and Miss Partridge.
His refusal to compromise and his integrity were out of fashion for his times and he experienced much rejection during his lifetime. It is ironic that the literary rediscovery and rebirth of Scotland of which he is so important a part began shortly after his death in 1975.
