...mellifluous ballad has been crooned by everyone from Julio Iglesias to Bill Murray. But when French Composer Lou Lou Gaste heard Feelings for the first time in 1977, he could not believe his ears. Reason: the song was indistinguishable from one he had written 21 years earlier called Pour Toi. Once Gaste discovered that Feelings had made a fortune for its composer, Brazilian Morris Albert, he decided to sue for copyright infringement. Albert maintains that he had never heard Pour Toi before writing Feelings. A federal district court last week ruled for Gaste, awarding him 88% of all royalties earned...

For one of the Lilac Fairies, MacMillan dipped into the corps to find Jennet Zerbe, 22, a tall, ample...
PUIG IS not the magician with words that some of his contemporaries are; though perhaps partly the fault of the translator, his prose does not roll forward with the colorful sweep of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, does not maintain the lively, fresh tone of Julio Cortazar. Finally Pubis Angelical is not successful when considered as a whole. The three interwoven parts of the narrative do not converge to a single story; they are not unified by a definite connection between the characters, and their similarities do not, in the end, seem very convincing. The optimistic, peaceful conclusion of the novel...
