IRISH SHORT STORIES: An
Anthology of Short Irish Fiction
from Yeats to Frank O'Connor.
Edited by Devin A. Garrity. These
stories combine lyricism, humor
and tragedy with rare imagina–
tion set in simple backgrounds.
The seemingly effortless art of
the best Irish writers has an ap–
peal that is naive and highly
sophisticated at the same time.
This is the first time in America
that the more representative ex–
amples of Irish short fiction have
been gathered. The emphasis is
on variety, and all are a delight
to read. 512 pages, $5.00.
JOURNEY THROUGH DREAD: A
Study of Kierkegaard, Heidegger,
Sartre. By Arland Ussher. Ire–
land's brilliant existentialist phil–
osopher examines the three major
contributors to existential phil–
osophy. Full of the verve and
vigor that have won him praise
on both sides of the Atlantic, Mr.
Ussher's work is an intelligent,
sometimes controversial, and al–
ways stimulating study in mod–
ern philosophy. The three sub–
jects come alive under an original,
witty, urbane hand. 320 pages,
$4.00.
REFLECTIONS ON THE FAIL–
URE OF SOCIALISM. By Max
Eastman. In the beautiful prose
for which he is famous, Mr. East–
man presents the most persuasive–
ly argued case against the Marx–
ian-Fabian Socialist ideology that
bas yet appeared. 128 pages, $2.75.
