NEWSLETTER FINDING AID

compiled by Stephen Powys Marks

Dear Member

The Newsletter Finding Aid is available in PDF format by clicking on the link towards the bottom of this page. I hope you find useful.

May I explain a few things:

It was compiled from the two earlier indexes to nos 1-25 in Newsletter 25 and nos 26-43 in Newsletter 44; this involved having both indexes on the screen and amalgamating them and ironing out the inevitable inconsistencies in indexes done some years apart, all that before then adding the material from Newsletters 44 to 64. I can't promise that the method of recording items is consistent.

The original index was the minimum which could be done and still be useful and not take too much space in a Newsletter, which meant that it is largely a SUBJECT INDEX, without an index of contributors. This would have been very useful also, but I did not feel I had time to go over it all again at the moment: I thought it better to let you have this list than none at all, but if I find time I will compile a Contributors' Index and post it here .

The format of the Finding Aid, 2 A5 pages on a horizontal A4 page, will allow it to be printed in a Newsletter at some time or as a free-standing A5 booklet, but I have arranged the pages 2-up, so that if you want to print it you can do so economically on nine A4 sheets.

The Finding Aid is marked PROVISIONAL because I hope that you will help me with corrections.

PLEASE LET ME KNOW OF ANY ERRORS OR OMISSIONS here.

Often described as one of the great apocalyptic novels of our time, WOLF SOLENT is the story of a young man returning from London to work near to the school at which his father had been history master. Complex, romantic and humorous, it is a classicwork combining a close understanding of man's everyday experience with a delicate awareness of the spiritual.

A Powys Society Meeting

Mr Weston's Good Wine is the unusual tale of the struggle between the forces of good and evil in a small Dorset village. Its action is limited to one winter's evening when Time stands still and the bitter-sweet gift of awareness falls upon a dozen memorable characters. During the book a child knocked down by his car is miraculously brought back to life; the sign 'Mr Weston's Good Wine' lights up the sky; and the villagers soon discover that the wine he sells is no ordinary wine.
