...arrived in Boston last Friday. For a while, every detail of his campaign day seemed to fit the expected loathsome pattern. Nixon had cancelled plans for a public rally on the Common; instead of bothering with the hecklers, he would give a pep talk to campaign workers inside the snug Somerset hotel, and then answer questions from a careful ethnic mix of six New England citizens...

...broadcasting, but under the regime of Charles de Gaulle, censorship has been particularly tight and unyielding. A few hours after the student riots erupted, for example, newscasts on O.R.T.F.'s two TV channels casually observed that the troublemakers had returned to their books and all was safe and snug in the land. Then, as turmoil mounted, TV newsmen prepared a two-hour report on undergraduate unrest, but minutes before it was to be aired, the government suppressed...

He is at once the sturdiest and the most pathetic character in Couples, a quasi-Christian and would-be family pillar who finds real joy in such things as "the children's choir's singing, an unsteady theft of melody." His adventures in adultery are an almost accidental byproduct of his own spiritual confusion, his wife's complicated sexual indifference and the irresistible why-not willingness of the women...

Only days before, the Republicans had seemed to be the chosen victims of an internecine bloodletting; the Democrats, with an incumbent President, appeared to be headed for snug harbor. New Hampshire, with a relished penchant for turning things topsy-turvy, turned them over once again. When the results were in, the G.O.P. had a clear front runner in Richard Nixon and a long-shot challenger in Nelson Rockefeller. The Democrats, by contrast, had on their hands the most dramatic-and potentially explosive-political situation in decades...
