Herbert f. HambIen Writes n Book

JAPANESE GIRL WRITES OF AMERICAN LIFE

One OF the most talked of books this
fall is Confessions OF a Wife," by the
mysterious Mary Adams which has been
appearing ~serially in the Century Maya
zine. It is written in the form of a diary
and letters which tell the heart-and- soul
story Of Marina Trent. wilderness Girl"
and deserted wife. The motif is the con-
duct toward each other of a high-strung
wife deserted by her husband) and of a
physician who has long been in love with
her. and who proves to be her mainstay
in her almost uncomfortable situation. In
these days OF loose ideas of marital re-
sponsibility, the book carries a wholesome,
valuable lesson. Marna's growth into a
wiser wife and a better self-poise is paral-
leled in the experience of thousands: and
DR.. Robert Hazleton is, indeed. a knight of
the twentieth century. The shadow Of
tragedy that turks mysteriously between
the lines Of the diary steps out boldly
upon it's pages toward the end; and then
comes the climax Of the story in which
"Dr. Robert" plays his noble and pathetic
part. Marna's attitude toward her hus-
band and toward her friend, Robert. is the
phase OF the book being most discussed.
