Its 9,000 electric and diesel locomotives glide in jolt-free quiet over continuously welded tracks. Its 100-m.p.h., all-first-class superexpresses, like the Dortmund-Munich Rheinpfeil (Rhine Arrow), offer such amenities as a four-course dinner for less than $2.50, worldwide telephone service, and multilingual secretaries at $1.50 an hour.

To make the whole thing more like a game, a colored photo of a tree stayed lighted until the child spelled the word. Words led to sentences, sentences to whole stories, and the learning-to-read process was complete...

But the brute, though deeply stricken, hangs onto life; and Karana, though rightfully revenged, begins by pitying and ends by nursing him. By the time he is well, she has come to love her enemy. Together they assail the seasons of their exile cheerfully, and make a life of what might otherwise have merely been a fate...
