Title: Hello Sailor (novel)
Content:  Eric Idle wrote Hello Sailor, his first novel, in 1970. The book was first printed in 1975 hardcover by the London publishers of fiction, Weidenfeld & Nicolson. An article on h2g2 attributes the delay to Idle's distrust of the publishing industry. As a literary work from a highly notable performer, the novel was reviewed in The Times Literary Supplement on 21 March 1975. The original hardcover book did not sell very well, but the book was reprinted the same year by Futura Publications. This paperpack issue of the novel was a moderate success. Though the book sold well, it remains one of Idle's lesser-known works, and is notable as the first published novel by a member of the Monty Python team. 
Title: Hello, sailor
Content:  "Hello, sailor" is a sexual proposition made to a sailor, presumably by a prostitute or promiscuous woman supposing the sailor to be male and sexually frustrated after a long time at sea. This usage has become a camp catchphrase, implying that sailors stay away at sea so long that they cannot tell the difference between a woman and a man in drag, or a play on the common conception that many sailors are homosexual. Hello, Sailor in this usage is also the title of several books, including one by Eric Idle and another about gay life in the British merchant navy, as well as a 2007 Liverpool museum exhibit about gay sailors. The British comedy act Monty Python, which includes Eric Idle, also made use of the phrase in several of their sketches.

Content:  deeply misses. Whilst Sailor is at sea, Matt plans to sail round the world with him if and when he finally returns, which Matt, convinced by his friends Felix and Rose, thinks is doubtful. However, Matt and Sailor eventually are reunited, and sail off together. This book is perceived to be a thinly veiled story of male homosexuality. A review of Hello, Sailor featured in the British lesbian magazine Diva. The Independent described Hello, Sailor as "A charming and heartwarming tale", whilst The Observer remarked that it is "A beautiful book...it makes – just as it should – the love between two men as natural and deep as any other."
