Cold as the State of Maine and ruggedly lumpy as ever were the Hartley landscapes. But his figures - first he has painted in years-included several strong studies of Nova Scotia fishermen and an extraordinary memory portrait of the late Painter Albert Pinkham Ryder, "as seen at night at the corner of Eighth Avenue and 15th Street" (see cut).

This week the book appeared in its uncut form, promising to be another best-seller of the stature of The Late George Apley. Comparison of the two versions showed that the Post's seven installments accented Brill foibles, heightened the picturesqueness of the story, diluted its satire, toned down the dialogue ("so damn screwy" to "so queer"), cut out Narrator Calder's cynical reflections on love ("all lovers are consummate bores"), on writing popular fiction...
