Henry Green: Eros and Persistence
[Below, Engel relates the theme of love and "a hope for transformation" in Green's novels to questions of class and gender. He also speculates on why Green stopped writing.]
The case of a writer of great accomplishment who ceases to practice his calling while still apparently in full possession of his creative powers is tantalizing. E. M. Forster, for example, lived nearly half a century after the publication of Passage to India in 1924 without producing another novel. There are ways to think about Forster's career however that can mitigate regret. It seems entirely possible that he was, as his biographer P. N. Furbank suggests, "one of those who have 'only one novel to write,'" and that Passage to India was so full and telling a dramatization of his social vision that any novel that followed it would have been anticlimactic or redundant. And that he knew this. Fortunately too, he wasn't silent during these many succeeding years, but was able to turn successfully to other forms of writing to remain an influential presence in the world. The truncated career of Henry Green though—a lesser but nonetheless considerable novelist—offers no such comforts. In the couple of decades between the appearance of his last novel, Doting, in 1952, and his death in 1973, Green was effectively mute.
John Updike, in a tribute that is admiring, discerning, and graceful, acknowledges Green as the writer he would say had "taught [him] to write" if that didn't imply either that he had learned or that writing was "a business one learns." In spite of this disclaimer though, he says he "can launch [himself] upon this piece of homage and introduction only by falling into some sort of imitation of that liberatingly ingenious voice." Updike is predictably illuminating when he talks about the identifying characteristics of Green's fiction, and the lucid complexities of his brief essay also establish his earned right to offer an appreciation of this brilliant and sometimes elusive stylist. He hazards no guesses however about the silence in the last two decades of Green's life, which he is content to call a puzzle. That's respectful, but it also closes a door I'd choose to keep somewhat ajar, open at least to speculation. For thinking about what might have caused Green's ultimate silence is a way to think too about why he wrote a body of distinctive novels before he fell silent, about what was at stake for him in that repeated voluntary act. And a couple of Updike's perceptions about Green that strike me as at odds with each other, offer a useful approach to these related questions.
Updike attaches little value to what he calls the "pugnacious piety" with which Green denigrates the wealthy class to which he was born relative to the working class; but then having said that, he also notes without any suggestion that this might work against the judgment he's just made, that in his second novel, Living, Green "escaped into" the working class, "finding there a purpose and gaiety hitherto lacking from his life." That's an instructive understanding to which Updike doesn't attach the importance it may deserve. For in addition to purpose and gaiety, Green must have found in the working class what he represented in several of his novels as a very different, more life-sustaining eroticism than he encountered among men and women of his own class. That has to be an important discrimination for a writer most of whose novels can reasonably be called love stories.
Rereading is a destabilizing activity. When I read Green's novels again now, the distribution of their weight seems to have altered since I read them last. The view of life they project is far more traditional than it once seemed, and I'm aware of an unexpected, persistent, earnest sense of possibility that informs them even as they achieve their greatest ebullience in the years during and just after World War II. A hope for transformation, for a life that is other and better, is palpable in all but Green's late novels, where what is felt instead is the extinction of that hope. Love, and its relationship to work and class, figure critically in that hope. Eros was Green's subject, but it was also I think the force that energized his writing, kept him going. Following the related themes of class and love as they persist and develop in his novels suggests something about the mystery of his ultimate retreat into silence that isn't indicated by attending only to their continuing textual brilliance.
In Pack My Bag (1940), Green's mid-life autobiography, the hope for transformation is both explicit and achieved. The book ends with his discovery some time after leaving Oxford (where, he says, he "had been an idler") to learn a range of largely manual skills in a foundry in Birmingham owned by his father, a wealthy manufacturer, that though "being tired in the head was to be the brilliant fruit of my labours in the day to sour the evenings … there were advantages … I found the life satisfying and I had never before been satisfied … the life was happy." Though aware that some part of this happiness was probably attributable to the novelty of what he was doing, he was nonetheless confident of the value of work and of "the new standard which I had never met, that of costs and prices." His tempered, qualified recollection of what this time meant to him ends then (as does the book) with a remarkably unqualified avowal that what he had found "was life itself at last in loneliness certainly at first, but, in that long exchange of letters then beginning, and for the ten years now we have not had to write because we are man and wife, there was love."
The novels however, some preceding and some following Pack My Bag, describe a trajectory on themes of love and class—a need for, then discovered optimism about, but then also apparent loss of belief in some possibility more generous and life-sustaining than what passes for love in the novels in the moneyed world to which Green was born. I have no idea how much this curve does or does not reflect the immediate circumstances of Green's own life; but though the saving love imagined or enacted in the novels is individual, it has social implications, and sometimes suggests a basis for community of a kind Green can only have observed or imagined.
Green's early writing was determinedly literary. His first novel, Blindness, published in 1926 when he was only twenty-one, trumpets literary ambition, and its systematic shifts in point of view particularly lend it something of the character of a sequence of literary exercises. Demanding exercises however, and of formative importance for a writer the originality of whose most accomplished work depends consistently on constraint.
Blindness records the dissatisfaction of its protagonist John Haye, who loses his sight in the course of the story, with the trivialities of his effete well-to-do life, particularly at his school, Noat (presumably Eton, which Green attended and with which, as with Oxford too, he expresses very similar dissatisfaction in Pack My Bag). Hemmed in by pretentious inconsequence, at one point he remarks to a friend that "poor people are always much happier than rich people on the cinema." It's hard to know how much irony "on the cinema" introduces here when he also confesses a little later that "the cinema used to be the only way I had to see life." Everything in the novel that followed Blindness, however, Living, suggests conviction that poor people's lives, whether or not they are happy, are more genuine than are the lives of the rich. Living has to do chiefly with men employed in an iron foundry in Birmingham (presumably similar at least to the foundry in which Green went to work on leaving Oxford), and with a young woman, Lily Gates, who keeps house for three of these men: her widowed and worthless father Joe Gates, her timid but dependable suitor Jim Dale, and the patriarch Craigan whose house it is. Tempted by the possibility of some more romantic life, Lily gives up Dale for Bert Jones, a bolder suitor with whom she actually goes to the cinema. The household slides into disarray as this happens, but when Lily's elopement with Bert to his native Liverpool becomes a disaster and he deserts her, she returns to Birmingham and it is reconstituted. Craigan's continuing tenderness toward Lily, and Jim Dale's steadfastness, are presented as of greater value and more enduring than either romance or sex—about neither of which Lily discovers very much even with Bert.
Extreme contrast to Craigan's odd but endorsed working class household is afforded by the wealthy Dupret family who own the works in Birmingham and are figures of a kind that turns up regularly in Green's novels as representatives of his own class. Ned Dupret, the feckless son, falls in love repeatedly and sadly with pretty, whimsically named, and consistently undependable girls of his own class; and when his father is ailing and invalided, his mother, "though she had never been very fond of [her husband], was now thinking how very fond of him she was," and hires a "well known courtesan" to revive his interest in life when the pretty young nurses hired previously to do that have failed.
There are no factory workers in Green's later novels, but the major characters of Party Going, which follows Living, could all be members of Ned Dupret's circle. Ten years elapsed between the publication of Living and of Party Going, the end of which is inscribed "London, 1931–1938." That might seem a long time in progress for a rather slight novel, but the apparent slightness of Party Going is intentional and deceptive. Though constructed largely of somewhat tainted gossamer, it's a very strenuous achievement, and its narrative voice is continuously and arrestingly distinctive.
The story however is simple. A number of well-to-do young idlers off together to a house party in the south of France are delayed by deep fog in a London station and ultimately in the station hotel where they take rooms in order to avoid the moiling mob of less privileged travelers similarly delayed. ("This is what it is to be rich, he thought, if you are held up, if you have to wait then you can do it after a bath in your dressing gown.") The matter of the novel is chiefly banal conversation, flirtation, sexual maneuvering and sexual teasing. At one memorable point Amabel, the most flagrantly desirable of the young women, does take a bath, but leaves the bathroom door partially open to allow her to converse with one of the male guests so placed outside the door that he can hear but presumably not see her. It's unclear to the other guests that he cannot see her however, and the object of Amabel's careful arrangement is to excite the jealousy of her fickle lover Max, the wealthy host of the party—to win him away from one of the other young women guests in whom he is also interested. No direct authorial judgment is made on these activities, but the empty conversations and the erotic posturing are self-judging. There is also however dramatic judgment. An eccentric aunt of one of the guests, who has turned up to see her niece off, collapses after a visit to the bar. The immediate cause of her collapse is alcohol, but it seems possible that she's dying, and because that possibility constitutes an inadmissible threat to the party, her niece contrives to hide her away in a distant room in the hotel where she can have her cared for discreetly. This reminder of human mortality serves here for Green much as similar reminders do for Dickens (whose novels the patriarch Mr. Craigan in Living reads perpetually), to disclose the unreality of social existence.
Green's persistent engagement with the possibility of transformation lends poignancy to his depiction of the trivializing eroticism of the rich and idle. The love antics of his own class are his enduring subject, but he also recurrently creates working class characters capable of a more generous, more life-sustaining kind of love. Contrast to the sexual teasing and withholding ubiquitous in Party Going is provided by an incident in which the man-servant of one of the party guests, left to guard baggage in the mobbed station, sees a girl with "lovely blue eyes" at the other side of his pile of baggage, and asks her for a kiss.
"I like your cheek," she said scornfully. "Here," she said, "if you want one," and crept around and kissed him on his mouth. Not believing his luck he put his arms around her and the porter said, "God bless me … God bless 'er little 'eart…. Come up out of the ground and gave him a great bloody kiss when he asked her."
A moment only, and nothing more is made of it. But in a novel in which judgments of human value can only be implicit, this slight episode earns attention because of its sharp contrast to what is otherwise happening. The contrast moreover is consonant with the judgmental associations of eros and class in both Green's earlier and his later novels.
Typically, the love that is accorded worth in Green's novels is in part compassionate. It implies an understanding of the pain and the limits of human existence. The casual kiss bestowed by the girl in the station has something of the quality of a glass of water given to a thirsty man. The most telling moments of tenderness in Living occur not between Lily and Bert, but in a scene just saved from the maudlin by being (perhaps incestuously) eroticized, in which old Craigan, whom Lily calls "granddad," sits by the bed into which she has collapsed on her return from her failed elopement. "Dear heart … don't grieve so," he says, and puts his hand over her eyes from which tears can flow only when his own tears have released them.
The world to which Green was born is the object of a lot of heady ambivalence both in his early novels and in his autobiography. Near the beginning of Pack My Bag, he reports his childhood fascination with his family's gardener Poole who "could never forgive my mother … [who] made him bowl mangel wurzels across one lawn for her to shoot at." He then adds however that he "adored" his mother, and describes listening to Poole's disparagement of her as his "first disloyalty": "it was as though someone were bringing out mean things about adoration to another full of his first love, what was said came as laughter in the face of creation and this and my love for my mother is what I first remember." The four novels Green wrote during and right after World War II—Caught, Loving, Back, and Concluding—are those on which any large claims for him must I think be founded, and Caught and Loving are also the novels in which this ambivalence is most strongly felt. Even here though, social hierarchy and moral hierarchy are pretty consistently in inverse order.
The war had a powerfully vivifying effect on Green's imagination. The threat to his world seems to have intensified his attachment to it, even to have caused a rediscovery of attachment to much that had previously felt devalued. Caught follows Party Going by four years, and the immediately apparent stylistic difference between them is the absence in the later novel of conspicuous innovation, such as absence of articles and decisive shifts in point of view. But Caught is also in complex service to an extraordinary time and set of historical circumstances. The story takes place in 1940, and a prefatory note declares it to be "about the Auxiliary Fire Service which saved London in her night blitzes."
In Caught too, and for the first time, Green creates a relatively intricate plot to bring into significant connection the lives of two men unlikely because of class difference to meet significantly except in time of war. Richard Roe, a well-to-do widower who (like Green) is deaf, joins the fire service as an Auxiliary (as did Green), where he receives instruction from a regular fireman named Pye. By unfortunate coincidence however, Pye's insane sister had once kidnapped Roe's son Christopher, presumably as a proxy for the child she has not had herself, and taken him to a room where Pye found and rescued him only after the boy was already in a state of terror. This unhappy event, which makes for continuing discomfort between Roe and Pye, serves also to bind them uncomfortably to each other. And these two very different men also have something psychically in common. The causal erotic adventures of wartime London weigh little for either of them against his most tenacious erotic memories. Roe falls recurrently under the spell of an imagined life with his dead wife whose "companionship" he "had taken … for granted" when she was alive, but whom now "he could not leave … alone when in an empty room, but stroked her wrists, pinched, kissed her eyes, nibbled her lips while, for her part, she smiled, joked, and took him up to bed at all hours of the day, and lay all night murmuring to him in empty memory." However melancholy, this is a relatively simple and even happy state of recalled life compared to Pye's obsessive memories of the first girl he'd made love to when he was a boy. Pye's is actually a double set of memories—of making love to a girl whose face he couldn't see in the dark, and then, later that same night, of watching his sister emerge out of the dark, returning home in the disheveled state of a defeated animal. The two memories inexorably take on causal connection. He comes to believe that his sister was the unidentified girl with whom he'd lain, and that this incestuous act was the cause of her derangement. The compassionate-erotic attachment to his sister that has evolved over the years from these joined memories leads Pye finally, by an intricate but persuasive set of associations, to an almost ritualized act, that destroys him. On a blacked-out street one night, goaded by his erotic memories and looking for a prostitute, he encounters instead a destitute boy who reminds him at once of Roe's son Christopher, and he takes the boy to the fire station where he feeds him and shelters him. However kindly, this is against regulations, and when it is discovered, Pye is suspected also of having molested the boy. The suspicion is unfounded, but imaginatively and psychologically, Pye's behavior does have murky associations. It's the sexual need incited by his thoughts about his sister that sends him into the streets; and there is strong similarity then between the way he shelters and sequesters the boy and the way his sister had kidnapped and sequestered Christopher. When the charge of moral turpitude brought against him coincides with the discovery of some relatively minor infractions of duty of which he is actually guilty, he feels disgraced and puts his head in a gas oven. He is found dead there by Roe who, "face to face" he says, pulls him out.
Green's view of the relationship of class to feeling, muted earlier in the novel, sounds strongly at the end. Having given his sister-in-law Dy a remarkable account of what the firemen had done during the first great raids on London, and gone on then to tell her what he knows about the events leading to Pye's suicide, Roe, stirred up, is appalled by her failure to respond in a way he considers appropriate to the compassion he has voiced for Pye, and to his pained sense of the injustice of the dead man's fate.
"I can't help it," she said. "I shall always hate him and his beastly sister."
This was too much for the state he was in. He let go. "God damn you," he shouted, releasing everything, "you get on my bloody nerves, all you bloody women with all your talk."
Stressing these thematic continuities, I of course scant the brilliance of the dialogue, sensual registration, and description that makes Caught so compelling. Roe's account of London under blitz, for example, is unequaled by any other account of this I know. But these virtues have been much remarked on, whereas the thematic elements that I think were probably crucial to Green's inventive energy, and an essential part of his personal stake in the act of invention, have been relatively ignored. His work diminishes in range and intensity, and he is then finally silent, as the interest invested in these thematic continuities is relinquished. I believe there's not just simultaneity, but causal connection as well, between these two lines of development.
Green's fiction is always artful, and after Living, he shows no interest again in simple verisimilitude. Nonetheless, the novels continue to press on experience, and some of the felt weight of that pressure depends on the value invested in a capacity for compassionate love that distinguishes to their advantage working people and servants who possess it from the wealthy who do not. By implication, that's an idea also about community. Green's view of his art however guarantees that these ideas will not have programmatic expression, and they may well not even have existed for him as ideas except as they animate character. But the variants of compassionate love developed in Caught—Pye's love for his sister, his misunderstood compassion for the stray boy, Roe's eventual commitment to Pye, the way Roe imagines his love for his dead wife and hers for him, even perhaps Pye's sister's abduction of Christopher—begin to be generalizing.
Compassionate love comes closest to communal realization though in Loving, the novel that follows Caught. Set in a wealthy household in rural Ireland during the war, it is an upstairs-downstairs story in which far more space and interest are accorded to the servants (mostly English) than to their masters about whom (as about the Duprets in Living) we learn only enough to make them effective contrast to the real principals. An adulterous affair upstairs between Mrs. Jack and Captain Davenport serves as foil to a couple of romances among the servants: between the beautiful maid Edith and the somewhat older and dyspeptic butler Raunce; and between the other, only less flagrantly comely maid Kate, Edith's friend and confidante, and the uncouth Irish lampman Paddy. For each of the maids, ordinary enough young women except for the luminous loveliness with which Green invests them, compassion for the men they are to marry is an integral component of the love that leads them to marriage. Mrs. Jack's more simply lustful doings with Captain Davenport however sexualize the entire household. The headiness of this is exacerbated too by the isolation of the household, in neutral Ireland, from England at war. The suffering imposed on the servants but not on their masters by this isolation—the concern of two of the servants particularly about distant parents—is presented with a moral earnestness unexpected in so brilliant a context. Green sets Loving though within formal boundary signs that suggest a fairy tale. "Once upon a day," the novel begins, and the last sentence is: "Over in England they were married and lived happily ever after."
Versions of compassionate love figure prominently also in the two other novels of Green's richest period, Back and Concluding. Back tells the story of Charley Summers who is repatriated from a German prisoner-of-war camp with a leg lost, and obsessed with a still greater loss, the death while he was gone of the married woman Rose whose lover he had been and whose son he may have fathered. In no other Green novel is an extreme artifice that doesn't distance employed quite so boldly and memorably. When we learn of Charley at the outset that he "had lost his leg in France for not noticing the gun beneath a rose," this is a first indication of his obsession with everything rosy—the name, the flower, the color. And Green's fictive world feeds this obsession abundantly. Soon after his return Charley meets and is drawn to a woman named Nancy whom he takes to be Rose resurrected, and who is indeed Rose's half-sister, her father's illegitimate daughter. When at the very end of the novel Nancy finally accepts Charley—she actually proposes marriage to him, realizing that despite his persistent muddled attention to her, he is incapable of proposing to her—she allows him to see her naked for the first time in the radiance of a lamp with a pink shade that.
seemed to spill a light of roses all over her in all their summer colours … but it was too much, for he burst into tears again, he buried his face in her side just below the ribs, and bawled like a child. "Rose," he called out, not knowing he did so, "Rose."
"There," Nancy said, "there," pressed his head with her hands. His tears wetted her. The salt water ran down between her legs. And she knew what she had taken on. It was no more or less, really, than she had expected.
Again, honored love flourishes not despite but because of the beloved's disabilities and vulnerabilities, and the way they find place in a realistic view of the fragility of human existence. The class bias that has previously informed the depiction of compassionate love in Green's novels however—that it is a virtue of the working class unattainable by the wealthy—is modulated in Back. The chief characters in this novel all belong to a relatively undifferentiated middle-class. I can only speculate that Green may have been infected for a time with a kind of social optimism that was touchingly common in England during the war, and that this took some of the edge off his views of class difference.
I assume however that the distinction between the capacity for love attributed in these earlier novels to the wealthy and to the working class is drawn in the interest or hope of transformation, and if the absence of that dynamic of difference from Back can be taken as a hopeful sign, its continuing absence from the later novels cannot be. The version of state socialism enacted in Britain shortly after the war by the Labour Party all but instantly elicited from Green in Concluding, which followed Back in 1948, a vision of a dystopia set in a pervasively aberrant near future in which not just the economy but all aspects of personal life as well are subject to oppressive centralized control. Compassionate love as a basis for marriage has no discernible place in this straitened society, but the anarchic sexuality of the sequestered pubescent girls at the state boarding school that is its chief scene, figures as a last force of resistance to state control of private life in something of the way sexuality figures in 1984, Orwell's otherwise very different version of the aberrational near future. Green accords biology far more qualified honor in Concluding however than Orwell accords it in 1984. The only human potential fully endorsed in Concluding is the nonsexual, compassionate, protective and patriarchal love of Mr. Rock—an old man who was formerly a distinguished scientist, and who survives as the exemplar of the best aspects of an earlier, better time—for his unstable granddaughter Elizabeth who has had a "breakdown at work." Vulnerable to the questionable mercies of the state she is now unfit to serve, Elizabeth's sexual needs do little for her but make her vulnerable as well to the uncertain loyalty of her lover Sebastian. His attachment to her is founded chiefly on his belief that Rock will be able to get the state to grant her assured possession of a house, something hard to come by in this starkly regulated society.
The poetic radiance that illuminates Caught, Loving, and Back recurrently, is found less frequently in Concluding. Green's imagination finds less to illuminate in a socially devalued world than it found in a war-time world the value of which was heightened by the possibility of its destruction. That distinctive light is all but extinguished then in Green's last two novels, Nothing (1950) and Doting (1952). Neither of these is of an interest comparable to that of each of the preceding several novels, but the difference can't be attributed to any diminution of Green's literary powers as such. The inventive skill he brings to the exhaustion of intentionally limited and essentially desolating possibilities in these final works is astonishing. James's achievement in What Maisie Knew could serve as a reasonable analogy if in either Nothing or Doting there was a Maisie to lend freshness to the otherwise pervasively sordid. No such contrasting figures exist however in a society Green pictures as motivated chiefly by enfeebled instinct. These two sadly comic novels return to the ambiance of Party Going, a version of the ambiance to which Green had readiest access. Now however the principals are no longer young, and though age has done little to change their interests or their characters, their flesh—and this is true of the young too when they appear as relatively minor characters—has lost all radiance. In Party Going, Amabel, however shallow or calculating she may be, is imagined in her bath by one of her admirers as pink with warmth and wrapped round with aromatic steam, "and her hands with rings still on her fingers were water-lilies done in rubies." In Loving, even Mrs. Jack, discovered in bed with the Captain, crosses "her lovely arms over the great brilliant upper part of her on which, wayward, were two dark upraised dry wounds." And when Albert gets the chance to hold Edith in his arms "for the first time" in a game of blind man's buff, and then to kiss her, he finds her head in this "short contact … in spite of being so short more brilliant more soft and warm perhaps than his thousand dreams." In Back, which follows Loving, the rosy aura of Nancy's nude body may be partly delusory, but it is nonetheless compelling. Female flesh in Nothing and Doting however is consistently, even formulaically, "fat" or "white" or both.
John Updike, as I mentioned at the start of this essay, finds that "the wit and poetry, the comedy and truth of [Nothing and Doting] show so little slackening of powers (though perhaps a more restricted channeling of them) that Green's lasting silence [following them] comes as a puzzle." Of course. But is it a puzzle to which Green's work offers no clues? Updike's claim for Green's neutrality as a creator and observer is I think excessive, and I take this as important to his finding so little falling-off in these last two novels. He writes, for example, that Green "never asks us to side with him against a character." Well, he may not ask us to do this, but he certainly causes us to do it, and apparently by intention. In an interview with Terry Southern published in the Paris Review in the summer of 1958, Green does say that "the author must keep completely out of the picture" if the fiction is to have "a life of its own"; but then he also says that the attitude toward the war of the English servants in Loving is "meant to torpedo the woman and her daughter-in-law, the employers." That's not neutrality, and here as elsewhere Green gives moral weight to those characters whose lives are conditioned by the exigencies of ordinary work, and who are capable as their social betters are not of what I've called compassionate love. If Updike sees such comparative weighings as aberrations rather than characteristic practice, that may account for his startling judgment that Caught is the "least enchanting of [Green's] novels."
The comic mode or modes of Green's novels, and their idiosyncratic brilliance, can easily disguise their earnestness. But the novels enforce a consistent moral judgment more evident when they are looked at collectively and chronologically than when taken singly, and that judgment is remarkably traditional. Green is not the first middle-class or upper-class English novelist in whose fictive world the working class poor are seen as more generous and more loving than their social and financial betters. And his ability to imagine and represent an alternative to the world he knew best seems to have been essential to the richest workings of his creative powers. When this alternative falls away, he finds nothing to take its place as a standard of the desirable, an energizing idea of another and better life. In Nothing and Doting, I detect some authorial admiration, even some limited relish, for the persistent scheming and contrivances by which his aging and jaded rakes of both sexes cling to the excitements of erotic life even when they are little more than vestigial. But the limited vitality available to them from this source isn't a basis for large hope.
Green belongs most nearly I think to a period of the English novel's development that had peaked shortly before he produced his major work. He is a less innovative stylist than Virginia Woolf and his moral earnestness never achieves the radical force of E. M. Forster's, but invoking those names suggests without denigration the identifying characteristics of his accomplishment, its formal daring and its commitment to amelioration of the human condition. Not immediately very much like either Woolf or Forster, Green was nonetheless close to them in spirit of literary ambition—the how and to what end that keeps the enterprise going—and the abrupt conclusion of his writing career suggests that he may have seen himself as a terminal figure in a lost quest.
