...novels and countless short stories little more than glorified True Confessions pap-orphan servant girls (Lummox, 1923), the secret love of a married man (Back Street, 1930), mother love (Imitation of Life, 1933). But her novels sold many millions of copies, and magazines paid $70,000 for the serial rights. "What success I enjoy," she once said, "comes from my inner convictions, which are little soul-tapers lighting the way." No story could hold a candle to her own 37-year marriage to the late pianist Jacques S. Danielson. Bedeviled by her disapproving parents, the couple were wed in secret...
About 2000 Johnson supporters are circulating the cards among Democratic and Independent New Hampshire voters in the month remaining before the March 12 presidential primary. They pledge signers to support President Johnson and to write-in his name for the election.

Doubtless the U.S. publishers are right in claiming that the novel is "the most talked-about literary work in Russia today." Bulgakov, who died in 1940, is officially described in the Soviet Encyclopaedia as "a slanderer of Soviet reality." The work...
Wonderland is at least aptly named. It is a haven for the eternal optimist, the guy who's been down so long it looks like up to him. A mechanic from Kentucky bets on dogs with girls' names. An old man goes through a complicated rigamarole with the serial number on a dollar bill to get his number. A haidresser's assistant visits a clairvoyant to get her bets for the week...
