This Ever Diverse Pair was first published in 1950, when Barfield
was practising as a solicitor in London. A humorous portrayal of
everyday life in a lawyer's office, the novel's true subject is
what C.S. Lewis described as "the rift in every life between the
human person and his public persona - between, say, the man and the
bus conductor or the man and the king..." Owen Barfield is one of
the twentieth century's most significant writers and philosophers.
Widely renowned for his insight and literary artistry, Barfield
addresses key concerns of the sciences, humanities, social
sciences, and arts in our time. His fellow Inklings, C.S. Lewis and
J.R.R. Tolkien, are among the leading figures influenced by
Barfield's work. "A work of art and more original than anything I
have read for a long time" - C.S. Lewis
