...human nature and musical revolution. To others, it is nothing but a stumble through an atonal desert. This recording will be appreciated by Berg's admirers, for Pierre Boulez's conducting is impeccable, and so is the courage of Walter Berry, who convincingly sings his way to murder and death through the cactus-like orchestration...
Call for Help. Guerrero averages more than 200 murders a month, 60 in Acapulco alone. Last November, when a new bride refused to dance with one of her wedding guests in Tunas, guns came out and eleven persons were killed.

The book is written in honest wrath, but Horwitz is one of those whites who have begun to see themselves as "Char-iey"-and to feel a self-contempt as deep as that of many Negroes. It is a paralyzing inversion...
