‘Morwyn’ – John Cowper Powys Above is my copy of ‘Morwyn‘ by John Cowper Powys that I bought new: i.e. the Sphere Books ‘The Dennis Wheatley Library of the Occult’ edition published in 1977, the novel’s first publication having been in 1937. The front cover has this sub-heading: “The Classic Novel of a Terrifying Journey into Hell” but the sub-title on the inside title page is ‘The Vengeance of God’. ——————————————————- My first edition of PORIUS by John Cowper Powys (1951 Macdonald: London): ——————————————————– My review of ‘The Inmates’ by John Cowper Powys HERE. My favourite quotes from ‘The Glastonbury Romance’ by John Cowper Powys HERE. ——————————————————–

‘Morwyn’ – John Cowper Powys I got to Powys by reading positive reviews about him in Colin Wilson books years ago - I read the Wessex trilogy and thought it was fantastic, especially A Glastonbury Romance. I also liked his historical novels, like Owen Glendower and The Brazen Head. I've got The Pleasures of Literature somewhere, but never read it.
