Rowling's magical inventions alongside their cultural and historical forebears. Promotion infoBeautiful design, magical Jim Kay illustrations and unseen treasures from J.K. Rowling 's own archive combine in this unique souvenir of the British Library's much anticipated exhibition - now available in paperback! |
