Few authors ever surpass their first
triumph. Whether the success of it
turns their heads from hard work to-
ward their own greatness or whether
they exhaust all their ingenuity in the
one crucial effort is unknown, yet the
result is usually the same; the single eff
fort ever remains as a monument of
what might have been. In many re-
spects this is the experience up to date
