The Old Men at the Zoo by Angus Wilson
Requirements: ePUB or MOBI Reader, 600 KB
Overview: Set in a near future (the novel was first published in 1961 and is set in the period 1970-73), this is Angus Wilson’s most allegorical novel, about a doomed attempt to set up a reserve for wild animals. Simon Carter, secretary of the London Zoo, has accepted responsibility and power to the prejudice of his gifts as a naturalist. But power is more than just the complicated game played by the old men at the zoo in the satirical first half of this novel: it lies very near to violence, and in the second half real life inexorably turns to fantasy – the fantasy of war. This tense and at times brutal story offers the healing relationship between man and the natural world as a solution for the power dilemma.
