This article briefly discusses the book "The World of the Thibaults," by Roger Martin du Gard. The eight parts of this work-the earliest and best of the many cyclic novels France has produced since the first World War--appeared in Paris from 1922 to 1940. In 1939 Stuart Gilbert gave an admirable rendering of the first six parts, and this, under the title of "The Thibaults," forms the first of the present volumes. The second, somewhat ambiguously called "Summer 1914," completes the novel by giving parts seven and eight in the same translator's faithful version.
