"Introducing
a splendid
new talent"·
The
Waters of the End
a novel by
CHARLES Se INGLE
"The acute delight this
first
novel will surely give • • • is
not the ordinary reading
pleasure in
~
good book. It
is more like the joy in a
lovely day, a remembered
dream, or music from far away.
Mr. Ingle's talent, fresh end
exhilarating,
fits
in none of
the current categories, but he
hIlS, without being like any of
them, the rare flavor and
uniqueness of Henry Green,
Malcolm Lowry, Djuna Barnes,
and Glenway Wescott •••
"To analyze the particular way
Charles Ingle conveys this shine
of youth is not easy, for it
does not come from the mind
or even the heart but from a
kind of animal awareness ..•
"His simple story of three
lads commemorating the tenth
anniversary of a father's drown–
ing at sea by retracing his
voyage in the same ill-fated
boat reaches us with the
poignancy of an old ballad
suggesting far more than it
tells, haunting the mind long
afterward with its overtones."
