VERCORS. You Shall Know Them.
Little, Brown and Company, Boston: 1953. First Edition. h Hardcover with dustjacket. Good condition. Some small chips are missing from the dustjacket.
What is man? At the bar of justice, his life hanging on the answer, stands Douglas Templemore, journalist and thinker, lover of mankind, and father - for science's sake - of several infants, possibly human. In the packed gallery, awaiting a verdict in the most celebrated trial of our time, sits Frances Templemore, recently Douglas's bride. Not far off, Derry the strange creature who mothered the "son" that Douglas killed, is quartered happily in London Zoo. Not science noir philosophy, not Parliament nor clergy, can decide if she is manlike ape or ape like man. Yet the court must rule. Translated into English from the French by Rita Barisse.
