About this book

Maeve Gilmore writes "Shapes and Sounds was the first book of poems published by my husband Mervyn Peake. It appeared in 1941 [Chatto & Windus], and when the Village Press expressed the wish to re-publish it, I was immeasurably happy. It is strange to think that when these poems appeared, Titus Groan and Gormenghast were buried in a nebulous future.
