Abstract

Notes by the Way
Marshall, Margaret | February 2, 1952 issue

The article presents information about several books. The most rewarding thing about the book "Winds of Morning," by H.L. Davis is its evocation of Western country, morning, noon and night. In comparison, both the plot and characters seem rather inconsequential. In another book "Chosen Country," by John Dos Passos invokes the American past to explain the present and to intimate the future of his two main characters. Passos had gone in for patriotism of the cruder sort, especially since his disillusionment with radical hopes and activity of his youth has been well advertised. As it turns out, the title is rather arbitrary.
