Despite the confusion and distress
Of this tragic era. with books Of all
types recording the passing events,
readers of the Public Library are
asking for new books of poetry,
and publishers are bringing out new
poets work, issuing important edi-
tions of the older, standard poets
and publishing scholarly and out
standing anthologies.
The most notable of the recent
collections Is THE oxford Book of
Christian Verse" chosen and edited
by Lord David Cecil, arranged by
the author chronologically from the
18th to the goth century. With the
exception of T. S. Eliot, all poets rep
resented were born in the British
Isles and the selection is a val
liable record of religious thought in
English literature.
The definitive edition of Rudyard
Kipling's verse has been printed
recently. This volume includes not
only the poems from his books of
verse, but all the poems scattered
through his prose works and 20
poems written during his latter
years not heretofore issued in any
volume Last Poems and Plays,
by William Butler Yeats. written
during the last years of the poet S
life, from 1886 to 1889, contains so

New Poetry Books Sought
By Library Readers

during the past few months: Robert
Hillyer, Pattern Of a Day. and
Conrad Aiken, a sonnet sequence.
And in the Human Heart"
Among the new small books Of
individual writer's are Against the
Cold" by Witter Bynner, and "Ar-
row at the Heel" by Raymond
Holden. Kenneth Fearing, one of
the outstanding "moderns" has just
published his Collected Poems;
Robert Nathan, "A Winter Tide;
Christopher La Fargo, Poems and
Portraits; Elliott Coleman, "An
American in Augustland." The
title poem pictures England in Au-
gust, 1899, with the shadow of the
coming war lying over the country
side.
A number Of the recent books
show the war influence, but the
poetry, although written with deep
sincerity. even passion. is not of a
high order. Among the more pop
ular titles are Edna St. Vincent
Millay's Make Bright the Arrows, "
a 1910 notebook consisting of "a
poems voicing the authors protest
against the present tragedy of wars
destruction, and Behind the Lines, "
by A A. Milne, a collection of short
poems. each followed by a footnote,
sometimes longer than the poem, in
which the author explains the
where and when and why of its
composition.
The White Cliffs by Alice Duer
Miller, is in great demand, voicing
as it does the close ties of blood
and brotherhood between the Eng
lish and the American people.

The Magic Bow
By Manuel Komrof.
York HdrDer e. Bros

~ 'tN"HcI hOHIOU. NSU
York Harper e. Bros.
Contrary to the generally accepted
belief, Author Komroff feels that
Paganini. though an absolute genius,
lived as a normal, rational person;
that the impression visualizing the
great violin virtuoso as one of music
dom's most brilliant eccentrics is the
false product of years of legend
colored more luridly with the passing
OF each generation. Speaking
through one Of the characters in his
romance of Paganini's life, Mr.
Komrof makes the claim quite
definitely: and it may be that he
has unearthed new material to sub
stantiate the contention. At any
rate, his narrative proceeds through
out on that basis.
Regardless of whether Mr.. Kom-
rof1's theory is correct, one cannot
help but feel his story would have
had immeasurably more luster If he
had assumed, instead, that Paganini
was d SiiOWHldu Ol many dDSOrDlng
idlosyncrasies. AS it stands, his book
Is an unexciting. wholly pedestrian
success" yarn plus a little excess
sentimentality and spiced only by
such true-to-life drama as the
maestro's acquisition of his priceless
GuarneriuS and a ess-cherished
Stradivarius and his power to elec-
trify audiences time after time with
his stunning technique Nor is the
Komrof version of Paganini's life
by any means complete: Nothing
does he write about the narrowing
illnesses that led the artist to his
grave; he omits much of the Euro
pean travels which made the violin
ist world-famous. And his concep-
ton of Paganini's heart affairs fol-
lows to a sickening degree the stock
form of the commonplace novel. In
fact, the reader will search far to
discover anything notable about this
book other than its subject.

Fanny by Goslight
By Michael Sddleir. Ne11 York
D. Appleton-Centuru Co.

D. Appleton-Century Co.
The author of this novel confesses
that, for a long time, the London
underworld of the 10Th century
that part of city life about which
the genteel contemporary writer's
seldom spoke-has had a strong in
terest for him. It has, he says, led
him to collect works on the subject
and to do considerable research.
And now here. apparently, he gives
us the fruits of these labors. Fanny
BY Gaslight" is the story of a young
woman who grows up in the Lon
don underworld and, through her
experiences, Mr.. Sadleir is able to
include in his book considerable un-
derworldly material.
Fanny is a girl for whom every
thing turns out wrong. She begins
life by being born out of vedlock
and proceeds through a series of
subsequent disasters. Her mother
marries man who becomes noto-
rious as keeper of a high-class
might house" The house is raided
and Fanny is taken into the house
hold of her titled father. but only as
a servant. She gets into difficulties
with her cruel mistress and runs
away to be a barmaid in a waterside
tavern which caters to bargees.
Eventually. she finds a job as secre-
tary to very high-clasS madame.
She has love affair with man of
good position-but he is killed in q
duel. She decides that the moral
outlook Of the world is topsy-turvy,
that the officially bad people are
often the good people and the Off
cially good people usually not good
at all. And so she ends up, finally,
an old lady writing her memoirs for
a modern publisher.
Now Fanny is not by a million
miles a credible person. nor is her
story anything but patiently made
to-order. The obvious purpose of
Mr.. Sadleir's moved has been, as
said, to write a novel Of London
night life in past age, and he has
clearly subordinated plot to back
ground. He gives us lengthy de-
scriptions of the town 10 years ago,
when Leicester Square was a gar
bage dump; he includes outlines of
the ways in which a young man Of
fashion might spend an evening out
and is detailed about the kinds of
entertainment offered in various re-
sorts. NC. R.
