A gorgeously illustrated, centuries-spanning journey through the pages of some of history's most beloved storytellers.

This beautifully illustrated book explores the stories behind over fifty literary manuscripts held at the Bodleian Library. Covering a timespan of nearly three millennia, the book features the work of some of the world's best-known authors, including novelists, poets, dramatists, and children's writers. From Sappho, Homer, and Ise no Go through the ages to Geoffrey Chaucer and John Milton, then onward still to Ian Fleming, Shirley Hughes, and John le Carré, Literary Manuscripts is a journey through history within the pages of some of our most beloved storytellers.
