Cincinnati I can never quite consider as a "hero" any man who accepted a German decoration from Hermann Göring, Hitler's ruthless crony. The true heroes were the boys who died fighting the Nazi beasts and never received publicity or parades. To me Charles Lindbergh will never typify a hero...
Ironically, to Burgess, who carries high the torch of fiction's modernist tradition, the future of literary studies and serious reading looks bleak. "Nobody reads in the past any more," he grieves. "You can major in literature in America beginning with Hermann Hesse." (Burgess should know. He has spent most of the past five years teaching at Princeton and the City College of New York, though he now intends to devote himself full time to writing.)

In Egypt, where President Sadat has resumed diplomatic relations that were broken off by the 1967 war, Careerman and Arabist Hermann Eilts, 52, like Kissinger an emigrant from Germany in his youth, has assumed the re-established ambassador's post...
