STAPLEDON, OLAF.

A Man Divided.

London Methuen & Co. Ltd. (1950) First edition of author's final book. Stapledon derived many of his notions of communal bonding from his experiences at Port Said, an international, cultural crossroads, where he helped with his family's shipping business. Split between two conflicting personalities (the new, epiphanous personality versus the old, less awake one), this story is a "symbolical expression or psychological conflicts" and relationships. This work is considered highly autobiographical. A fine copy in a fine d/w with slight wrinkling to edges.
