Parkin mentions JB at one point when referring to the sexuality of a friend: ‘It was only when, through a mutual love of the Hollywood musical, I became a friend and subsequent confidante of a particularly tortured fellow student that I had any idea of what being male and homosexual meant. He gave me a book by James Baldwin to read called Giovanni’s Room’.
