...leading the way is Japanese-born Kenzo Takada, 37. In his winter collection shown last April, Kenzo, as he calls himself, experimented with long, blousy sweaters meant to be worn over tights or leg warmers. Growing bolder this season, he has whipped up short gathered skirts topped with floral-print smocks. The motif is Tahitian-Polynesian, and Kenzo tops it off with aloha leis...
...questions were often better than the answers, though as the old saying goes, a fool can ask ten questions while a wise man is answering one. Generally, print journalists knew their subjects better than electronic journalists; the best-balanced team of questioners were the three who queried the vice-presidential candidates; the best single questioner was Max Frankel, who exhibited the sharpness he will bring to the New York Times editorial page when he becomes its editor in January. His question to Ford produced the famous gaffe on Eastern Europe, which Frankel, unbelieving, gave Ford a chance to correct...
Aside from these milestones in Beckett's course through the variety of literary forms--like Joyce, he never uses an identical form twice--this anthology provides a valuable service in printing Beckett's early essay on Joyce's Work in Progress (later known as Finnegan's Wake), "Dante...Bruno.

Let a member of the judiciary, with no ax to grind, review the question...

Released Sept.20, the book is already in its third printing (total copies to date: 60,000); its prospects have Macmillan aglow. Report's stimulation and legitimacy come not from its statistics - there are surprisingly few - but from the confessional accounts by women of their own sex lives. Many female readers can closely identify with these intimate revelations, which have a frankness and directness not usually...
