The article discusses books and authors. In "This is Lorence: A Narrative of the Reverend Laurence Sterne," Lodwick Hartley wrestles manfully with a hundred trivial or dubious or off-color questions of British novelist Laurence Sterne's career with a discretion and scant regard for the records that might surprise his subject, who, being a novelist, was hampered by no such scruples. An immense amount of devoted study and trained research appears to have gone into this fairly short book, which handles with ease a baffling complexity of detail and carries the story along swiftly end with concentration on several planes at once.
