CAMINO
REAL
by Tennessee
Williams

Considerably revised smce its New
York production, this new play by the
author of
A Streetcar Named Desire
is a fantasy with disturbing impli–
cations. In a desiccated no-man's
land legendary characters move in a
phantasmagoria of humanity's uneasy
dreams. The predicament and the way
of escape for a modern Everyman,
Kilroy, the ubiquitous ordinary guy–
is the more compelling for the ex–
travagant humor of his adventures.

THE DOCTOR
AND THE DEVILS
by Dylan
Thomas
$2.50
This is Thomas' first book-length prose
narrative, a murder story based on the
ghoulish exploits of Burke and Hare,
one of the most famous cases in Scot–
tish criminology.
The Chicago Tribune
calls it "... a superb job of imagina–
tive reconstruction, rich in the poetic
quality of its language and yet drip–
ping with the 'cauld grue' of, say,
Stevenson's
The Body Snatcher. .
