Authoress Undset's latest novel stands a very slim chance of being put on the Pope's Index Librorum Prohibitorum. If not exactly a manual for Roman Catholics, The Burning Bush should please Catholic palates and doubtless annoy any heffling Protestant literate enough to read it. A sequel to The Wild Orchid, The Burning Bush carries the story of Paul Selmer from young married days to a ripe and disillusioned middle...
