The Sense of Movement
By THOM CUNN.
Vivid, powerful, original conceptions-a
masterful ability to develop his conceptions in a striking way–
characterize Thorn Gunn's poetry. A brilliant young poet whose
two books of verse have commanded the attention and unanimous
respect of the British press, he is now introduced to American
readers. His poems "state afresh and with great force questions
which have troubled poets and thinkers in all ages."-EDWIN
MUIR,

Tales of A,ncient India
Translated by]. A.
B.
VAN BUITENEN.
Roguish in tone, in–
tricate in form, these fourteen lively stories reflect the sophisticated
urban culture that flourished in India before the onslaught of the
Huns. The classical Indian heroes and heroines emerge as vividly
as those in the
Arabian Nights.
J.
A. B. Van Buitenen, a foremost
Sanskritist, strikes a fine balance between the ornateness of the
original and a directness congenial to modern readers.
