The article presents a brief information on the book "Homecoming," by C.P. Snow. The latest to practice that sequence of interrelated novels in which individual, group and period fuse into saga is C. P. Snow. The era he covers is that formed by the two world wars. His characters range from lower middle class rag and bobtail to top echelon administrators. His surrogate, and crystallizer of narrative, is Lewis Eliot, observer or participator as occasion warrants, but perceptive in either role. The book, by Snow, provides a large installment of public man's private life.
