...resolve all the contrasts and in the structure of modern would be an impossible task. object of Aron's book is to explain of them, and to destroy, in a et way, what he feels are orthodox and largely specious effusions on the causes and consequences of de Gaulle's new Republic. For commonplace evaluations of such matters as changes in the French economy, the roots of ministerial instability, or the policy of de Gaulle and his predecessors toward Algeria, Aron has little tolerance, and while his own may not be any more convincing, they are at least excellently supported...

Prospectus for Bankruptcy. Rushing forward in a field where Angel et al. were treading lightly (the survival rate of new record companies is less than 1%), Marianne and Barbara compiled a catalogue of releases that, to most merchandisers, read like a prospectus for bankruptcy-W. H. Auden declaiming Auden, Sir Ralph Richardson pacing gravely along Swann's Way, Faulkner grappling with his own syntax, an ailing Colette reading from her novels while the bed sheets rustled...
