Items related to Overman Culture (Coronet Books)
Essef - A boy's struggle to grasp the forbidden truth about his world. This is one of those classic tales set in an artificially sustained reality, such as in Shakespeare's The Tempest and Michael Moorcock's Dancers At The End Of Time and The New World's Fair. Yet The Overman Culture unfolds like a set of Chinese boxes, to finally reveal the reason for the many paradoxes, temporal and otherwise, that haunt the reader as she/he progresses through this masterpiece.

Book Description Paperback: 7" x 4½". Condition: Good: Moderate signs of wear. Cover Art: Chris Foss (illustrator). 1974 Edition. © 1971: A stand-alone novel by Edmund Cooper. 1st printing of 1974 edition:- Synopsis: Michael was quite young when he discovered that some of his playmates bled if they cut themselves, and some didn't. For a long time he didn't think about it. Nor did it seem strange to see Zeppelins being attacked by jet fighters above London's force field, or glimpse Queen Victoria walking with Winston Churchill in the Mall. Not at first. But later he thought about these things - he couldn't help it. The world was real, and yet unreal. It was all desperately worrying. So Michael and his friends formed a society to investigate the world around them. Despite the terrible things they discovered, things that made some of them insane, they never actually guessed the truth about the Overman culture. Until Mr Shakespeare told them:- (original cost £0.35). Seller Inventory # 18.003.00171
