Mirrors for England

For everyone inspired by the Joseph Losey season and exhibition on at BFI Southbank during June and July 2009, we proudly offered the opportunity to enrich that experience by thumbing through the written word on Losey.

The items from the collections of the BFI National Library, which were on display in our Reading Room, are listed below.
