This semiautobiographical novel criticized the dearth of spiritual values in contemporary society. In nonchronological fashion, the novel covers more than 30 years in the lives of a group of upper-middle-class English friends, especially Anthony Beavis and his longtime married lover, Helen. His intense prep-school friendships continue at Oxford; most important are his relationships with Brian Foxe, who later commits suicide; with Hugh Ledwidge, who marries Helen; and with Mark Staithes, who becomes a Marxist and with whom Beavis goes to Mexico to fight in a revolution. While in Mexico, Beavis adopts a Buddhist-centered philosophy, practices meditation, and becomes a pacifist. -- The Merriam-Webster Encyclopedia of LiteratureProduct DescriptionAnthony Beavis lives an unfulfilling life of foreign adventures until he encounters a charismatic doctor in Mexico and forges his own philosophy from the doctor's original brand of political activism\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eforges his own philosophy\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68229035131168,"sku":"NEW0786702648","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/51gKYyqH7jL.jpg?v=1794337722","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/eyeless-in-gaza-0786702648","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
