The most notable success among
serious books is Bertrand Russell's

there is a clamorous demand for
thousands more. Many years have
gone by since book concerned with

Lord Russell's high standing as

brought at least two novels of some
significance. THE Story of Mrs.
Murphy" by Natalie Anderson Scott
Is, contrary to some absurd things
said about it in certain reviews, q
powerful and authentic account of
q mans disintegration, though by
no means a great novel. "Under the
Volcano by Malcolm Lowry. an
alcoholic phantasmagoria, attracted
much attention.
Youth in trouble, ponderously
called juvenile delinquency, inspired
several competent novels. The most
loudly heralded was knock on Any
Door," Willard Motley's story of a
Chicago boys downfall. This is a
strong, sincere book, but marred by
interminable detail. Two less pre-
tentious and more objective studies,
Irving Shulman's THE Amboy
Dukes" dealing with Brooklyn
gang. and I. S. Young's "Jadie

schoolgirl. are in my opinion, better

Victorian women who has suffered

Robert Hichens, who made a SEN
sational hit long ago with The Gar
den of Allah," has published his
"reminiscences with the title yes

ample material for the continuation
of Right Hand, Left Hand"
The life record of William McFee,
the English seaman long resident
in America, whose books are widely
read on your side, comes out as In
the First Watch"
For originality and style, beyond
all question, the autobiography of
the season is that of Neville Cardus
of the Manchester Guardian. His
place among music critics is envi-
ably high. His quite peculiar second
distinction is that no writer of the
time on cricket can approach him
in mastery, either of the game itself
or of mother tongue.

Cheap Reprints Are
Flooding the Market
To conclude, I will note a few
matters Of practical interest and Of
curiosity. The dominant feature of
the book market is the lavish supply
of reprints, after years of famine.
There were rumors about a new
mass production of cheap reprints
in France, to be dumped on the
English market. One firm started
its series and tried running them
over the Channel in its own little
steamer; but that enterprise came
to very little English books are

Forever Amber" which was seri-
allied by Sunday paper of huge
circulation, is not obtainable in the

lous rate. Silly people are paying 60

easily guess why they want to read
the book, and may imagine their
disappointment. How many of your
