Until the age of fifty-two, the protagonist of On the Edge of
Reason suffered a monotonous existence as a highly respected
lawyer. He owned a carriage and wore a top hat. He lived the life
of "an orderly good-for-nothing among a whole crowd of neat, gray
good-for-nothings." But, one evening, surrounded by ladies and
gentlemen at a party, he hears the Director-General tell a lively
anecdote of how he shot four men like dogs for trespassing on his
property. In response, our hero blurts out an honest thought. From
this moment, all hell breaks loose. Written in 1938, On the Edge of
Reason reveals the fundamental chasm between conformity and
individuality. As folly piles upon folly, hypocrisy upon hypocrisy,
reason itself begins to give way, and the edge between reality and
unreality disappears.
