The World Is Made of Glass

4.3/5 ( ratings)

A cryptic and mysterious case history appears in the autobiography of pioneering Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung: 'A lady came to my office. She refused to give her name . . . What she had to communicate to me was a confession. Some twenty years ago, she had committed a murder . . .'

Jung's encounter with the woman had an explosive effect on him, and brought him very close to total breakdown. Morris West recreates this episode in a gripping blend of truth and dramatic speculation.

Set in pre-World War I Europe, The World is Made of Glass is a powerful novel of love, sexual obsession, murder and guilt. It has been called Morris West's finest creation of the imagination.

'An audacious and wonderful novel.' The Mail on Sunday

'An enthralling story.' The Spectator

Pages: 390

Format: Kindle Edition

Publisher: Allen & Unwin
