Mark Van Doren Says He Never Feels
Like Writing, but He Gets Lot Done

from the house and not connected
by telephone.
IF there's telephone call for
me at the house." he explained.
they can tell the caller I'm out
with a clear conscience"
He writes prose on typewriter,
poetry with a pencil. And he says
he works reasonably fast. He spends
from three to four hours every
morning in the sawmill where he
has nothing but desk, a chair, his
writing materials and small coal
stove. AS his work progresses he
picks up speed and puts in longer
hours. When he sees the end of a
book in sight he works day and
night until it's finished.
Praises Marguerife Young
Mr.. Van Doren thinks that even
If no names have stood out during
this war in the realm OF poetry,
the general quality of American
and British verse has been high.
THE poems are more various and
more complicated than during the
last war;" he said. They express
more points of view"
One of the brightest stars on the
literary horizon, he believes, is Mar
guerite Young, who recently pub
lished Angel in the Forest" He be-
lieves most of the best literature
about the war won't appear for an
other few years-when the impress
sions and the implications have had
chance to sink in.
