Book Description
The reference to 'questing unity" pertains to many different subjects and themes involving grappling with issues in such areas as comparative literature, linguistics, literature, history and mythology. In all events every comparison implies a criterion wide enough to comprehend the scope of the common area occupied by the subjects of comparison, whether the inquirer is aware f it or not. Thus comparison involves delving into one's own psyche, or not? Without the assumption of a universal underlying unity: no religion, no science and no sanity.

Book Description
In the summer of 1909, seventeen-year-old Nell Golightly is the new maid at the Orchard Tea Gardens in Cambridgeshire when Rupert Brooke moves in as a lodger. Famed for his looks and flouting of convention, the young poet captures the hearts of men and women alike, yet his own seems to stay intact. Even Nell, despite her good sense, begins to fall for him. What is his secret? This captivating novel gives voice to Rupert Brooke himself in a tale of mutual fascination and inner turmoil, set at a time of great social unrest. Revealing a man far more complex and radical than legend suggests, it powerfully conveys the allure - and curse - of charisma.
