Very good to inside with small signature of past owner to top right corner of page facing inside front cover. There is very slight wear to the front right corner tips, even less so to back. The author 'sets his subject's fiction in context with the poetry, plays and book illustrations which are less well known. He traces recurrent motifs through Peake's works (islands, animals, and loneliness, for example) and explores in detail Peake's long neglected play, The Wit to Woo'. A brilliant insight into one of 'British literatures most vibrant imaginations'. Broadleaf Books is a second hand independent bookshop in Abergavenny, South Wales. Enquiries and visits are very welcome. fic Peake
