Come together to do this for him now so when young men and women shout out in hurt or anger from your streets or campus, "I am someone," King's spirit of freedom will ring back to them, not only from our distant plain, but from you city--a spirit flowing not from the "cup of bitterness and hatred," but founded upon the "stone of hope" King mentioned in his "I Have a Dream" speech in 1963.

For all his rapture in her, George proves to be a resistant victim. Unlike Katy's, his spirit is dull and earthbound. He remembers his own humble roots before he prospered in a packaging business, before his best friend--a carefree chap whose background was similar to his--died of cancer. As the fool in George plots marriage, the essential George--bland--walks all over London, even stopping...
