The article gives information related to new books in France. A volume of selected works, a collection of pious poems called "Feuilles do Saints," and the first "day" of "Le Souuer de Satin" have brought about a revival of the old Claudelian fervor. The theatrical work of author Jules Romains now stands complete in three volumes. "Abertine Disparue" has shown Proust in dishabille, death having prevented him from enlarging upon that powerful first draft. With a new edition of "Amyntas," André Gide has brought forth his "Fiux-Monnayeurs"; it is both a fresco of contemporary society and a Dostoevskian study of the Freudian complexities of youth.
