...Prostitute in Literature, edited by Harold Greenwald and Aaron Kirch (Ballantine; 50?). A paste-up of teasers about such shady ladies as Thais and Fanny Hill, which ends, to the sure stupefaction of all prurient teenagers, with the nighttown episode from Ulysses...

Offenbach's works are still visible as theatre, as has been proved by Cyril Ritchard's Perichole at the Met and also by Stephen Aaron's Orpheus at Lowell House, but Albert Marre's Helen fails for want of any vestige of style or finesse.

Deployed in the midsummer's night sky around the bust of their creator are 24 characters who belong to the ages. While brushing up on your Shakespeare, see how many you can identify. The illustrations on this page are from a puckish little number called "Shakespeare on TIME," published by the Promotion Department in connection with the appearance of this week's cover story...
