WILLIAM FAULKNER
A Critical Study by IRVING HOWE
"Perceptive and just. Mr. Howe makes Faulkner's novels extraordinarily
readable in all their particulars. His knowledge of the characters
is
acute. The reasoning is always clear. As an account of Faulkner in his
capacity as a Southern writer, this study
is
the best there is." -F. W.
DUPEE,
Partisan Review.

THE BUILD-UP
A novel by WILLIAM CARLOS WILLIAMS
"Dr. Williams has succeeded a good deal better than Sinclair Lewis or
John Dos Passos in presenting what you and I see and live but cannot
express as well.
The Build-Up
is experience communicated and il–
luminated. It further establishes Dr. Williams' claim to
be
considered
one of the best of contemporary
writers."-Saturday Review.
$3.50
THE DISGUISES OF LOVE
A novel by ROBIE MACAULEY
"An excellent first novel. Mr. Macauley has a genius for making the
ordinary appear extraordinary.
The Disguises
of
Love
speaks with
eloquent sadness to everyone who knows that love is never without
limits-and realizes the series of masks it perhaps necessarily assumes."

Y. Times Book Review.

WORDS AND WAYS OF
AMERICAN ENGLISH
By THOMAS PYLES
"A fresh and lively account of how the English used today in America
came to its present form. This book should wake many an American
reader to the uses of his own wonderfully flexible, well-endowed
language."-San
Francisco Chronicle.
