[The Deptford Trilogy 02] • Manticore

**The second novel in Robertson Davies’ critically acclaimed Deptford Trilogy, *The Manticore* is a fascinating exploration, by an exquisite stylist, of those regions beyond reason where monsters live.** **Available as an eBook for the first time. **

David Staunton, the son of Percy Boyd Staunton, travels to Switzerland. As he undergoes Jungian analysis for a lifetime of unhappiness and the trauma left by the death of his father, he repeatedly encounters a manticore—a monster with the head of a man, the body of lion, and the tail of a scorpion.

“He is to say the least a mature and wise writer.” Anthony Burgess
