These unsolicited letters, whether they come from a schoolgirl such as Lisa Fitzgerald or a Nobel prizewinner such as William Faulkner, have one quality in common: a nononsense, no-holds-barred sense of deep and outspoken conviction. Late in the year many of our letter writers share another trait: they are reviewing the events of the year and choosing their candidates for TIME'S Man of the Year. One of these this year was Finbarr M. Slattery, who is known as "the divil to argue" in his native village, Asdee (pop. 250) in County Kerry, where the Shannon meets...

A singing Georgic to husbandry...
...mantel of their quiet Paris apartment. Fascinated by the shell, Redon used it as the starting point for a motif as old as antiquity. His Birth of Venus is a subject that has inspired artists from the time of the Greeks to Botticelli. Redon painted it as something glimpsed deep in the sea or seen fleetingly but unforgettably in a dream...
