plays are given complete (one of them well worth staging) as is also the
long very early tale Under the Bondage of Fear, the later
Cottage Shadows and the fascinating Journal of 1910–13. As well as
some complete stories the collection also has carefully made selections
from some of the other unpublished novels, and the Bible commentaries;
there are essays, literary criticism and all the surviving
autobiographical fragments of this reticent man. The first-written of
Powys's published novels is here completed with the Cancelled Chapters of
Mr Tasker's Gods. (To read a review by John Williams please click
