About
The Anatomy of Frustration is a philosophical essay by H. G. Wells, purportedly presenting the views of William Burroughs Steele. Topics covered include mankind's desire to escape death, possibly through 'merger-immortality', the merger of a person with something larger than himself, such as a family, clan, institution, or all of mankind, which survives beyond an individual's life. Contents include: 'Part I. What All Men Seek', 'Part II. Toward the Next Beginning', and 'Part III. Why We Are Frustrated'. Includes a specially commissioned new biography of the author. First published in 'Harper's Magazine', April-June 1936.
