1t is a pleasure to report
that this novel is even better
than the first. The Soldier
Room" has a more mature,
vital theme: it is even leaner
and more hard-hitting in its
spare prose than The Tall
Dark Man" and more nearly
perfect example of construc-
ton.
The Young Bride
The new novel is about
Ruth, who has gone from her
native hamlet to the small
city of Caldertown in the Ohio
River Valley as an 18-year-old
bride. She has married Sidney

home in another section. But

ways hoping he would adjust
himself and they would have
a better life. There was, too,
the matter of her collie, who
had been murdered mySteri-
ously. Then Sidney had come
to spend most of his time at
home in an attic room where
he kept perhaps the finest COL
lection Of toy soldiers in the
country, metal figures repre-
senting every nation and every
period of history. This seemed
at first a harmless hobby, but
she wondered increasingly.
1t never occurred to the
youthful, naive Ruth that her
husband was a paranoid pSy-
chopath. Apparently the town
never suspected. Sidney merely
was thought very PECULIAR
pity he wasn't Sociable like
his brother. Meanwhile, the
effect Of being immured in the
old house was telling on Ruth.
In defiance Of her husband
she began going out to a few
parties.
1t is hardly surprising that,
desperate in her loneliness, in
almost a pathological state
from the eerie emptiness of the
mansion and her husbands
masked, controlled sadism, she
threw herself in the arms of
the first normal. polite man
she encountered. What hap
pened then is for you to find
out.
Wretched Aftermath
This novel is not, I take it,
the glorificatioin of adultery
SO many modern novels are.
The point is rather that GER
tain deplorable consequences
are apt to follow a surfeit of
wretchedneSs and resistance
worn to its thinnest point.
Perhaps I overstresS the re-
freshing novelty of encounter
Ing a writer who is terse and
to the point in these days of
rambling, overwritten novels.
But I maintain that repeti-
ton often weakens a strong
statement. And despite, per-
haps even because of. the brew
ity of this story. I put it down
feeling l knew Ruth, had heard
her talk; knew her mentally
sick husband, the robust house
keeper. even some of the others
who fit in and out of the mar
