\begin{quote}  Some readers might enjoy C.P. Snow's \emph{Strangers and Brothers} a series of novels noted for Lord Snow's descriptions of "man in committee" as a literary theme. Lord Snow was a lawyer, scientist and civil servant monitoring science in WWII Great Britain, and also a novelist of realistic bent. \url{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C._P._Snow}. Has my mind wandered off here? Yes and No. Snow also was author of \emph{The Two Cultures} describing an unfortunate gap between the humanities and sciences. He finds those in the Humanities lacking in basic understanding of the Sciences and scientists likewise not comprehending the wisdom found in the Humanities.   \end{quote} \begin{quote}Lawrence Durrell's \emph{Alexandra Quartet}consists of three novels with differing points of view but the same characters set in WWII Egypt, the fourth novel is set at a slightly later time and offers one more view of the same time and events. The reader is drawn deeply into seeing the story from the narrator's point of view only to be upset and disturbed by finding they were not understanding events correctly. This is much like the novice anthropolgists seeing events from thier own point of view only to realize they are both disturbed by culture shock and also have failed to understand the different \emph{world}of the \emph{native.}  \end{quote}  Lawernce Durrell's Alexandria Quartet
