Beverley Nichols (1963)

Biography

American writer who related a horror tale of the brutal nightmare of his early life and his hatred for his father, a sadistic alcoholic, in "Father Figure." The book was a far cry from his gardening books, stories about cats, and tales of quiet life, for which he was well known. His first novel, "Prelude," was published when he was 20.

His father enslaved his wife and three sons for 40 years. Beverley tried to kill his father three times: the first time he gave him poison and his father threw up; the second time, a week later, he rigged an accident in which his father broke his leg; and the third time, on 31 March 1929, he gave pills to his drunk father that had no effect. He loved his mother, Pauline. She died on 20 June 1939 at the age of 73, leaving her entire estate to her boys. After Pauline's death, his father never drank again.

Nichols died on 15 September 1983 in London, just a few days after his 85th birthday.
