Description: First edition hardcover copy of The Manticore, by Robertson Davies (Viking, 1972). The second book in Davies's masterful Deptford Trilogy, The Manticore focuses on David Staunton, son of the rich industrialist Boy Staunton, whose death precipitated the events described in Fifth Business, the first volume in the trilogy. The entire trilogy (like much of Davies's work) is steeped in the ideas of Junigan psychology, but that feature is most prevalent in this volume, which largely consists of conversations between David Staunton and Johanna Von Haller, a Jungian analyst. Winner of the Governor-General's Literary Award in 1972, The Manticore is widely considered one of Davies's most accomplished works. This book is in very good condition, with an intact (though slightly creased dustcover) and no rips, tears, marks, or other major signs of wear.
