Draft of a Preface to Lolly Willowes

Abstract

These two short fragmentary pieces from the Sylvia Townsend Warner and Valentine Ackland Archive in the Dorset History Centre concern Lolly Willowes (1926) and The Fairy-Faith in Celtic Countries by Walter Evans-Wentz. One piece appears to be the unfinished draft of a preface to Lolly Willowes, and the other, the start of a review of a reprint of Evans-Wentz’s book.
