Sinister Street

Sinister Street

"Sinister Street" is a 1913-14 novel by Compton Mackenzie. It is a kind of bildungsroman or novel about growing up, and concerns two children, Michael Fane and his sister Stella. Both of them are born out of wedlock, something which was frowned upon at the time, but from rich parents.

In the UK, the book was published as two volumes, and in the USA these appeared as two separate books - "Youth's Encounter" (1913) and "Sinister Street" (1914)
