Mervyn Peake
Titus Groan, Gormenghast and Titus Alone
London: Eyre and Spottiswood, 1971
Second printings of UK re-issue edition.
One of the great Romances to have come out the '40s and '50s, this trilogy was the masterpiece of Mervyn Peake.
A highly accomplished illustrator, Peake had written nonsense verse, but turned his talents to this epic saga, partially in response to the horrors of World War Two, which he witnessed as a War Artist.
Highly recommended.
Hardcovers, with very good, unclipped jackets.
