Erich Fromm, psychoanalyst, sociologist and philosopher, will deliver the 1957 Gay Lecture. His talk will be given in Amphitheatre D at the Medical School at 5 p.m. on Thursday, April...
...former glamour girl is down and out, shaken by the DTs, degraded by three nightmare marriages plus numerous vulgar affairs, and reduced to borrowing $100 from Tyrone Power-how can she rehabilitate herself?

The journey back-Greene ingeniously uses a cocky teen-ager to get him round a few tough corners-has too much of the real pull of a good detective story to be decently disclosed. On the other hand, the disclosures themselves-involving not just a miracle but a miracle born...
