For a year during World War II, an unremarkable residence in Brooklyn Heights became the epicentre of Western music and literature. 7 Middagh Street was home to a list of luminaries: novelist Carson McCullers, burlesque dancer Gypsy Rose Lee, as well as three young Englishmen who鈥檇 emigrated to America as conflict blasted Europe - composer Benjamin Britten, tenor Peter Pears, and poet W.H. Auden.
