The Secret Sharer - Joseph Conrad

The Secret Sharer, by Joseph Conrad, is a short book that
while lacking a particularly interesting story does offer
good insight into the true-self, better-self, higher-self
psychoanalysis contempory to his time. Conrad exploits
the good versus evil, conscious versus sub/unconscious
etc. dichotomy we all deal with but I wouldn't recommend
the book to someone unless this is exactly what they need
to read.
