Titus Alone by Mervyn Peake

Titus, 77th Earl of Groan, exiles himself from the mad dark rites of his ancestral home to wander in the world at large. He discovers in many ways it is more strange and frightening than Gormenghast itself - and Gormenghast was at least home. Mervyn Peake has peopled the book with dark and troublesome denizens; melancholic Muzzlehatch; the fading Juno; the spicy Cheeta; a galaxy of worrying strangers that inhabit the ominous Under-River; the fearful but arrogant Titus himself. This 1985 Methuen Paperback is in fair condition. Some tanning.
