Beyond His Horizons

The article discusses the book "Seven Horizons," by Charles J. Finger. The chief structural fault of this book is after all not a matter of writing. There is sufficient zest in the telling of these many unusual tales. The fault is the lack of an eighth horizon to which one might give the name perspective. There is a curious disproportion between what Finger tells and the way he tells it, like nothing so much as a landscape seen through the wrong end of a telescope. The reader is therefore advised to approach this book with some, if not with considerable, forethought.
