London: Chatto and Windus, 1991. A Very good+ unmarked copy which has a very small indentation to front top edge and age toning to page edges. Dustjacket is VG+ and is not price clipped. 255 pages. In this absorbing autobiographical memoir, Blady is not so much the principal (although she has a crucial part to play) as the core symbol and catalyst. It is a true story of people, events, themes and relationships which together have formed a special pattern in Laurens van der Post's life. Unlike anything he has written before, it combines intuitive fantasy with a taut dramatic narrative as the story gathers pace to the climax of Blady's great race. Outwardly random occurrencesm from the writer's childhood in Africa to the death of his son from cancer, provide the framework for the searching exploration that follows - an exploration into fundamental aspects of the human spirit, its besetting ills and troubles, and the life-forces that keep it intact.

Deeply concerned with the dilemma of men and women in the world today, Father Vann, O.P., concentrates in this book on the practical aspects of faith. What is the relation between medicine and morals, science and faith, sexual deviation and Grace, holiness and humanness? How can the Church and the confessor help the patient towards sufficient emotional detachment to avoid the pitfalls of pseudo-vices, pseudo-virtues? What do we mean by 'natural', and what is the nature of man? And what above all is man's relation to other men and God? Father Vann stresses the importance of making clear the distinction betwee moral and psychological problems. R1. First. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
