...Kaleidoscope, one of her better tear-stained efforts, is about a less fortunate lady, Hilary Walker, whose father strangled her mother and then killed himself, who was torn from her two beloved sisters, indentured in foster homes and raped by adolescents of both sexes. But Hilary, with eyes like green ice or emerald fire, is a survivor who goes on to make it as a TV executive. And Steel, too maternal to leave a heroine unfulfilled and unmarried, sends her John Chapman, a man with "perfect teeth, and gentle eyes." It seems worth noting that John Chapman is the real...
...Dublin to London and New York City. His settings, from Ardmor Castle to the local pub, are natural and unforced; the language of his characters hints at hidden poetry without breaking into showy lyricism or stage Irish: "Beyond the streaky window, the land opened out before us -- the wide, green fields of the midlands, the hills of Munster, a flashing glimpse of ruined keep, a manor house half hidden by plantation, the battered, roofless nave of a lost friary or monastery...

The result is a lamp that alludes serenely to light -- the moon and the sun -- without fuss or frill...
Last week, in an apparent effort to defuse the issue, Pravda carried a large black-and-white photo of the SS-20. The accompanying story spoke of an "enormous, dull green cocoon with a blunted half sphere . . . a belly full of fuel, its sleepy snoozing head, where the explosive is concealed." Like earlier photos provided by the Soviets, the Pravda snapshot showed the canister encasing the SS-20, not the missile itself. The article, said a Western diplomat, "is of more literary than military value." And the West is still waiting for that photo...
