Description: | Hardback notebook containing manuscript drafts of 'Lucifer Wilkins' by Leon Garfield (Heinemann, 1973). The front of the notebook contains what appears to be an early version of the beginning of the story, which breaks off after only six pages. The notebook has then been reversed and used from the back, with what appears to be a complete draft of the story appearing at the back of the notebook. The first section of the text is not numbered, but the later part of the text is divided into sections numbered '2' and '3', which roughly equate to chapters 2 and 3 of the published text. Although the sections roughly equate to the chapter structure of the published work, the text itself is very different to that of the published work and evidences significant revision throughout. Some pages in the manuscript have been folded in half vertically to indicate that they have been superseded by revised text.
A white label has been stuck to the front cover of the notebook, incorrectly identifying it as 'Captain's Watch. Leon Garfield'. This label is in Vivien Alcock's hand and was probably affixed to the notebook some time after Garfield's death. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/uk/ | Rights holder: | Seven Stories | Subjects: | Seven Stories | Source: | Seven Stories | Identifier: | LG/01/05/03 | Go to resource |
