Rejected Guest is a novel written by Richard Aldington that tells the story of a young man named John Stride who is struggling to find his place in the world. The novel is set in the early 20th century and explores themes such as love, loss, and the search for identity.John Stride is a promising young poet who is invited to stay with a wealthy family in the English countryside. However, he soon realizes that he is not welcome and is treated as an outsider by the family and their friends. Despite his attempts to fit in, John is rejected by the people around him and is forced to confront his own sense of self-worth.As the novel progresses, John becomes increasingly disillusioned with the world around him and begins to question the value of his own artistic pursuits. He is also haunted by memories of his past, including the loss of his mother and the trauma of his experiences in World War I.Rejected Guest is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that explores the complexities of human relationships and the struggle to find meaning in a world that can be cruel and unforgiving. It is a must-read for anyone interested in literature, history, and the human condition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
