- Summary
- When did Jean Cocteau see a fellow of Somerville in a kimono? How did a mummy mask find its way to the library? What?s the connection between The Oxford Book of English Verse and a prison camp? And how did a devilish cat become immortalised in fiction?002019 marks 140 years since Somerville opened its doors. Since then, the college has educated two Prime Ministers, one Nobel Prize-winning scientist and over seventy published authors. A catalogue of the rare, the everyday and the just plain curious, Somerville 140 includes everything from sculpture to teapots and books to bicycle racks.
