As well as taking in the well-known titles that have helped shape the world in which we live, The Secret Library brings to light more neglected items among the bookshelves of the world.
Oliver Tearle is Lecturer in English at Loughborough University. He is the founder and editor of the blog Interesting Literature: A Library of Literary Interestingness and runs the accompanying Twitter feed, @InterestingLit. Interesting Literature can also be found on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/InterestingLiterature. Tearle is also the author of the books T. E. Hulme and Modernism and Bewilderments of Vision: Hallucination and Literature, 1880-1914, and the co-editor of the experimental book Crrritic!
If Oliver Tearle's book is half as interesting as his website
Interesting Literature, his Twitter feed and his Huffpost blog,
it's going to be very interesting indeed
*John Lloyd CBE, creator of QI*
A fascinating and engagingly genial stroll through several hundred
years of literary anecdote and insight. Tearle is wonderfully good
company as of course are the protagonists themselves
*Simon Evans, comedian*
If you love books, you'll need this one
