ESSAYS
by
Howard Nemerov

tions of poetry and theory is followed by sections of examples
from poetry, fiction, criticism, and translation. "Mr. Nemerov
is that rare thing in America, a man of letters. He has, and
always has had, an unmistakably independent voice--an ab–
solute integrity of taste and judgment, and a very distinct
tone."-R.

GIDE
by
Germaine Bree
"Her lively and intelligent book succeeds extremely well in
capturing the attractive and baffling qualities of her sub–
ject. . . . It js an alert and perceptive study of a complex
author. Written with pleasing briskness, it provides a sound
appraisal as well as a lucid general introduction.... Incisive
and rich in insight, this critical study communicates the
brilliance of Gide's mind."-N.
