Month after month they come from the various publishing houses. Two eminently representative examples lie side by side on this Survey’s desk. The first is James O'Donnell Bennett’s first class job of boiling down the “best sellers of the ages” into a single volume, “Much Loved Books” (Boni, Live- right), The second is Ernest Boyd’s “Literary Blasphemies” (Harpers), in which the brilliant critic takes pot shots at the idol- atries surrounding such immortals as Poe, Shakespeare and Milton, eee Bennett’s book begins with the Bible, since this is a perennial best seller. It includes “Treasure Island,” Benevenuto Cellini, Mark Twain, Hawthorne, Dickens, Marco Polo, “The Arabian Nights,” Plutarch, and adozen more. Bennett has sketched the plot of how the classic came to be written. It is this latter information that seemed to us particularly inter- esting. Packing a great work into a few pages is a most difficult feat, particularly when’ “high light” quo- tations are included. Perhaps such books serve their purpose in whet- ting appetites for broader reading; perhaps they merely assist literary laziness. Certainly it is a good book for those beginning to read, since it can serve both as guide and bap- tismal. — se 8 The Boyd book is not for the | od lazy minded. It assumes that you have read and know your immortals, from Byron to James. It assumes that you know of the halos that have been placed upon these heads. And then, even as the Washington biogra- phers have shown the _ illustrious George drinking strong liquor and gambling, these essays show the sa- cred cows of literature stripped of a few illusion. True, he does not strip them of immortality; rather it is a job of vi la over stand- ards built about them by centuries of blind worshippers. “Boyd will not approach his immortals with wreaths in his hand. Rather he has his pen drawn and is ready to tilt with it, even if he has to shock you out of your chair. You will hear it charged that many of the classics have been kept alive by artificial respiration; that Milton was considerable of a pla- giarist; that Shakespeare gave utter- ance to “much platitudinous wis- dom”; that James “possessed that very vulgarity from which he had proposed to escape.” Boyd takes t|reply, “A Son of raps at Hardy and does some snappy age in the same picture. fisticuffing with Poe. eee Reading over the monthly list of best sellers we find that, on the non-fiction side, Katherine "8 el amo! 10 be ‘Wherefore we wonder how ma will turn to Dhan Gopal Mukerji other India Answers” (Dutton In fact, it had never occurred until the luction of he film version by of Austin Strong’s play “7t!

The notebook is one of 500 pieces that have been found in the Lon- don of the master’s sister, Emily Sargent, and which she has loaned to the Grand Central Galleries for display. The genesis of the painter's skill and.care is seen in the sketches that he did as a 12-year-old school- boy. The little notebook contains pictures of animals, caricatures of his playmates and drawings of fa- mous statues.
