Peake archive at the British Library
Posted on 29th January 2010, 10:19
From the British Library website: "The British Library has been presented with a unique opportunity to purchase the archive of acclaimed writer, artist, poet and playwright, Mervyn Peake (1911-1968). This extensive archive contains rarely seen manuscripts, notebooks, letters and illustrations and its acquisition would make an exceptional addition to the British Library's collection." This archive also includes the drawings Mervyn Peake did for Alice in Wonderland and Through The Looking Glass, currently on display at Maison d'Ailleurs.
