Mervyn Peake

Gormenghast

Prashanth Srivatsa

Fantasy in all its splendour! If Titus Groan was the harrowing, gothic tale of power, its sequel Gormenghast is all about defiance, love, vengeance and freedom. Peake uses the wealth of language at his disposal to paint an unforgettable picture of the legendary castle of Gormenghast and its many characters. Steerpike's ascension and consequent downfall easily makes him one of the most interesting villains in literature.

Titus Groan expects to rule Gormenghast, the vast, gothic labyrinth of turrets and dungeons to which he is heir, and his subjects, according to age-old rituals, but things are changing in the castle as he is forced to contend with treachery, manipulation, murder, and his longing for a life beyond the castle walls, in the sequel to Titus Groan.
