Book Description

'A brave attempt to look at the world and to decide what an intelligent man should think about it' Sunday Times

From the Back Cover

Two years after The Collector had brought him international recognition and a year before he published The Magus, John Fowles set out his ideas on life in The Aristos. The chief inspiration behind them was the fifth-century BC philosopher Heraclitus. In the world he posited of constant and chaotic flux, the supreme good was the Aristos, 'of a person or thing, the best or most excellent of its kind'.

'What I was really trying to define was an idea of human freedom (the Aristos) in an unfree world,' wrote Fowles in 1965. He called a materialisti and over-conforming culture to reckoning with his views on a myriad of subjects - pleasure and pain, beauty and ugliness, Christianity, humanism, existentialism, socialism.
