The article presents information about the book "To Make My Bread," by Grace Lumpkin. This is an unpretentious first novel written in a simple and matter-of-fact prose and yet reading it has been a more real, more satisfying experience than that which almost any other recent work of fiction has given him. In analyzing this response there seems to be no one feature of the novel that he can isolate as accounting for its appeal; certainly it is not the form of the book that makes it valuable. On the contrary, reading it has made the author realize the unimportance for a full response of what one can commonly call form.
