Set in a near future (the novel was first published in 1961 and is set in the period 1970 73) , this is Angus Wilson's most allegorical novel, about a doomed attempt to set up a reserve for wild animals. Simon Carter, secretary of the London Zoo, has accepted responsibility and power to the prejudice of his gifts as a naturalist. But power is more than just the complicated game played by the old men at the zoo in the satirical first half of this novel: it lies very near to violence, and in the second half real life inexorably turns to fantasy the fantasy of war. This tense and at times brutal story offers the healing relationship between man and the natural world as a solution for the power dilemma. E-100; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 352 pages. Seller Inventory # 61735
