- 1945-1949
Photocopies of one hundred and thirteen letters and three postcards, 1945-1949, from John Cowper Powys to his brother Littleton Charles Powys, containing mostly personal news and reflections, together with photocopies of partial/incomplete undated letters from John Cowper Powys to Littleton, which are kept in a separate folder within the box. Some of the letters are illustrated with John Cowper Powys's ink drawings, which include self-caricatures. There are references to "the 499 AD novel" (which would become Porius (1951)) and to the deaths of John Cowper Powys's wife Margaret and Littleton's second wife Elizabeth Myers, both in 1947.
