This article presents information about the novels "They Came Like Swallows," by William Maxwell; "The Scandals of Clochemerle," by Gabriel Chevallier and translated by Jocelyn Godefroi and "Light Woman," by Zona Gale. In his novel, Mr. Maxwell has limited himself to the simple delineation of human relationships within a small family. Two boys and their father think about their mother for something like a fortnight, at the end of which suddenly she dies. Their hates, their loves, their momentary distresses and ecstasies are brought into focus and made moving and real.
