About this Item

Quarter publisher's gilt leather, red cloth, pictorial onlay. Portrait. First separate edition. � 44 of fifty deluxe copes, from a total edition of three hundred numbered copies, signed by the author. A fine line scar on the signature page, probably occurring during binding, else an exceptionally fine copy. Percy was a medical doctor who didn't practice and a Catholic who did, which equipped him to embark on a search for how we mortals fit into the cosmos. His theory examines when a bad thing is inevitable, for example, a meteorological occurrence such as a hurricane or a brutal winter storm. People feel better because they are focused on something and know what they must do to preserve a state of well-being for themselves and others; when there is no conflict, no focus, people have the luxury to feel badly.
