Two Literary Critics Romancing the Archive at London's National
Portrait Gallery. Part biography, part detective novel, part love
story, and part meditation on archival research, Love Among the
Archives is an experiment in writing a life. This is the story of
two literary critics' attempts to track down Sir George Scharf, the
founding director of the National Portrait Gallery in London,
famous in his day and strangely obscure in our own. After
discovering Scharf's scrapbook of menus and invitations from
England's most stately homes, the authors began their adventures in
the archives of London, searching Scharf's diaries, sketchbooks,
and letters for traces of the man who so loved dining out. Addicted
to Victorian novels, the authors looked for a marriage plot, but
found Scharf's passionate attachment to a younger man who had
hidden from him a secret engagement; they looked for a
Bildungsroman, but found that Scharf never left his beloved mother.
Always short of money, self-educated, talented, irascible,
gregarious, prolific, and snobbish, this son of a poor immigrant
artist was to become the right-hand man of an earl he called "my
best friend." The written record of his nightmares, debts, gifts,
and dinner parties comes together to produce a rich Victorian
character whose personal and professional lives challenge what we
think we know about sex, class, and profession in his time. Helena
