Abstract
In his version of the iconic story, Goethe has his hero say, “There are two Fausts in my soul!” And a century or so later, Camus’ lawyer narrator in The Fall puts his own first-person story under the sign of Janus, the Roman god with two faces looking in opposite directions. There is a bit of this doubleness in my friend Sandy's soul. I’ve thought for a while that his trained intuition follows a literary tune, but that his less Dionysical and more Apollonian mind points him towards history and the social sciences.
