The Go-Between is a novel by L.P. Hartley (1895-1972), published in London in 1953.
The plot has striking parallels to that of a classical Danish novel, Brudstykker af en Landsbydegns Dagbog ("Fragments from a Parish-Clerk's Diary") by St. St. Blicher (1824).
In 1970, The Go-Between was made into a movie with the same title. The cast included, among others, Julie Christie, Margaret Leighton, Michael Redgrave, and Edward Fox.
