LGBT Magazines and Welsh Libraries take copies of The Abergavenny Witch Hunt
Week commencing 8th September 2014
LGBT Magazine and Libraries: Monmouthshire Libraries Fail to order The Abergavenny Witch Hunt.
Book sales have continued slowly. Copies of the book have been accepted by a number of LGBT magazines, some academics ( with LGBT credentials ) as well as by several review, literary and newspaper contacts in South Wales, Kent and London.
It is pleasing to report that several Welsh Libraries, including Newport, Gwent and Powys have ordered multiple copies of the book.
All credit to the book requisition librarians in these two Counties.
The National Library of Wales have also ordered an additional copy for their shelves.
It is a very bad reflection on Monmouthshire Libraries that despite sending e-mails to ALL the libraries in the County offering discounted priced copies of The Abergavenny Witch Hunt no orders have been received to date. A very poor show. This reflects the general veil of disinterest about the sex scandal of 1942 by official organisations in Abergavenny .Whether the town and county authorities like it or not the case is a very important but disturbing aspect of the County's past history.
