The remarkable new novel by the author of
Around a Rusty God
Augusta
Walker's
The Eating
Valley
Miss Walker writes of little things-of a man and his family, of his church
and the small European town he calls home. But she tells the story with
such deep understanding, and in prose that "comes close
to
being as limpid
and savory as Alan Paton's,'' that these little things become a great and
memorable experience. For in her deceptively simple way, she dramatizes
the whole of the ceaseless struggle between man and nature.

Room
"The story of a young American involved with both a woman and another
man. Mr. Baldwin writes of these matters with an unusual degree of candor
and yet with such dignity and intensity that he is saved from sensational–
ism."-New York
