Edman, Irwin | December 10, 1924 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the books "My Dear Cornelia," and "Points of View," by Stuart P. Sherman. Mr. Sherman has long been recognized for the sharpness and precision of his perceptions; even when one disagrees with his valuations one admires the accuracy with which he discloses the native essence of the writer or idea he loves or hates. In "My Dear Cornelia" Mr. Sherman seems to have added a new dimension to his reputation as a writer. "Points of View," in which Mr. Sherman dons his more familiar critical habit, is a miscellany of essays on current social and literary phenomena: American Style, Sinclair Lewis, Where There Are No Rotarians, Brander Matthews, and Gertrude Stein.
