Argonaut and Juggernaut is a novel written by Osbert Sitwell and published in 1919. The book tells the story of two brothers, Argonaut and Juggernaut, who are born into a wealthy English family. Argonaut is the elder brother and is portrayed as a sensitive and artistic soul, while Juggernaut is the younger brother and is depicted as a brute with a love for physical activities.The novel follows the brothers as they grow up and navigate their way through the social and political upheavals of early 20th century England. Argonaut becomes involved in the artistic and literary circles of London, while Juggernaut becomes a soldier and fights in World War I.As the war comes to an end, the brothers find themselves on opposite sides of a political divide. Argonaut becomes a pacifist and joins the anti-war movement, while Juggernaut becomes a supporter of the British Empire and its colonial ambitions.The novel explores themes of class, nationalism, and the conflict between artistic and physical pursuits. It also offers a critique of the British establishment and the role of the aristocracy in society.Argonaut and Juggernaut is considered a landmark work of modernist literature and was praised for its experimental style and innovative use of language. It is a complex and challenging novel that offers a unique perspective on the social and political landscape of early 20th century England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
