Agents and Patients.

Agents and Patients is Anthony Powell's fourth novel and incorporates many of the tropes for which his fiction is famous. The novel applies elements of psychoanalysis and film-making to cast a critical but comical eye on modern society, examining the need for gratification and the ability, or failure thereof, to realise it when it happens. The novel continues Powell's evolution of the style and technique he was to eventually deploy in his famous series A Dance to the Music of Time.

One of the author's most collectable early novels, especially rare signed and in such good order.
