The article focuses on Edward Newhouse's book "The Hollow of the Wave." The book wears no air of importance but only an air of decent pride, is entirely understandable and even lively, it must be singled out from the run of current fiction: these are rare, if relative, virtues. "The Hollow of the Wave" is about some men and women in and around a Communist-dominated reprint house in New York. The group includes a millionaire angel, with whose portrait Newhouse is most successful; and a typography man, who tells the story in the first person.
