This article focuses on the book "Golden Wind," by Takashi Ohta and Margaret Sperry. It was a bold step on the part of the publishers to begin the Paper Books series with "The Golden Wind," for however snobbish this may sound, the story of oriental adventures here presented is not for every reader. Action there is and excitement; love and war and religious mystery offer sufficient incidents to satisfy the most melodramatic taste; yet it is not the thousands of sensation seekers who make for the popularity of books, but the limited number who can find enjoyment in prose of a high order, who will really appreciate this narrative.
