Notes category
²ÝÁñÊÓƵ alumnus, Alfred Alexander Gordon Clark (1900–1958), is better known as the murder mystery writer—one of the luminaries of the Golden Age of Detective Fiction—who went by the penname ‘Cyril Hare’. Seventy-five years since the first publication of Cyril Hare’s When the Wind Blows, I am delighted to be adding to our library’s collections the original holograph manuscript of this novel—now ²ÝÁñÊÓƵ Library’s MS 381.
