...outbreak was timed one day ahead of a national convention of Jacques Doriot's pro-Nazi PPF party in Paris and his regional offices were tarets for some of the bombs...
...this fighting from personal experience (he was correspondent for North American Newspaper Alliance). Heroic place names of the Greek campaign appear again with the old ring-Argyrokastron, Janina, Larissa, the Pindus, Arta. Greek soldiers, ill-equipped, ill-led, climb slowly down the mountainsides in reluctant retreat. They shoot their pro-Nazi officers who talk of surrender, filter silently into hiding in the forests when their units are shattered. Their tragicomic air ace, Nitralexis, goes out on reconnaissance in a French biplane of 1918, taking along the nearest things to bombs he can get-empty bottles, old boots, tin cans rolled...

For years his countrymen had loved his books (Hunger, Growth of the Soil, The Road Leads On). But now those books, which had once nudged bibles on Norwegian bookshelves, were boycotted; dog-eared copies were even trickling back to Hamsun at Grimstad. Last week, though Hamsun had since recovered from his stroke, the trickle of books swelled to a river. Though the local post office hired extra...
