The World Is a Wedding
by delmore schwartz $2.75
ROBERT PENN WARREN:
"I have read Delmore Schwarlr!s
srories several times, and am more impressed with them
at
each reading. I do not see why this book should not place
him quite securely among the ·very best writers of the story
we now have in America."
WALLACE STEVENS:
«Delmore Schwart;:,'s thoughtful and ap–
parently simple pag.es .are pages of the book of the world of
these years. Nothing much seems to happen. Yet when the
book has been finished, everything has happened."
JOHN CROWE RANSOM:
«Delmore Schwartz writes about the
solidest short stories that are being made just now. He is a
poetic realist. There is extreme intelligence in his probings of
the modern world."
The
Sky
Is Red
by giuseppe berto $3.50
The leading best-seller in Italy
for two years, this sad and sensi–
tive novel will move you pro–
foundly.
·The SKY IS RED seems to
me one of the reall'}l extraordin–
ary novels of recent years
-
a
magnificent book."
CARsoN McCuLLERS
«This is a beautiful story, told
so simply and gently, in spite of
its terrific implications, that it has
left me moved as few books have.
It may be his first novel, but
Berto is one of the great writers
of our time."

Georgiana
by maude hutchins $2.50
The saucy originality of this first
novel about a girl's love affairs
will place Maude Hutchins in the
top rank of today's women writ–
ers.
((GEORGIANA is a remark–
able first novel. Its first part is
brilliant, as subtle and penetrat–
ing a piece of writing as most of
us have read for some time.''
CHICAGo SuNDAY TRIBUNE
«Those who read GEORGI–
ANA are in for an astonishing
hour or two. A most unusual
book, it is obviously the product
of a brilliant mind.''
