...Iceberg. Brash young Review-men got E.M. Forster to explain why he stopped writing novels in 1924, James Thurber to discuss the difference between American and British humor, William Faulkner to talk about his technique, recorded equally penetrating chats with Francois Mauriac, Joyce Gary, Robert Penn Warren and other literary lights.

"The time has come," trumpeted Tunisia's President Habib Bourguiba, "for the United States and Britain to choose between colonialism and freedom. Since these two countries, after the Sakiet bombing, requested us not to go before the U.N. Security Council, it is impossible for them not to take a stand in favor of the country which has been the victim of aggression and against the country which has been guilty of aggression...
