...Memoirs do give us wonderful sketches of Neruda's friends and contemporaries--Garcia Lorca, Vladimir Mayakovsky, Eduardo Frei, Soong Ch'ing Ling, the wife of Sun Yat-sen, and Cesar Vallejo among others--but they somehow leave us without the personal detail of Neruda himself. The Memoirs, for instance, barely mention Neruda's first wife or marriage, an 18-year venture--and have no more than one or two dozen specific time references...

The pattern of the Series had emerged: the Yankees stopped at third...
...outfield, the Reds have some young players, like George Foster, Cesar Geronimo and Ken Griffey, who, despite their great hit-and run-producing abilities, also play spectacular defense. The Yankees' troika of White, Rivers and Elliot Maddox aren't the greatest hitters and their defense leaves a lot to be desired as well...
