...Terror & Treason. Throughout the far-flung archipelago, at least 30,000 proCommunists have been arrested since the Red-led October coup attempt. According to rumors, hundreds of Red leaders have been quietly killed. In West Java, the Moluccas and the East Celebes district military commanders last week took it upon themselves to ban local Communist parties-a move that Sukarno has been "considering" but has not yet been able to stomach. The Bung, who badly needs the Communists as a balancing force against the military, has been toying with the idea of a new nationalistic Communist Party, free of Peking...

Now living in Venice, the Faustian-bearded poet was spending a few days in Paris to celebrate his 80th birthday, and one of the carefully guarded things he did say was that he wants to return...
...evil in this tour through the libidinal jungle, which he ponderously describes through the eyes of a hero named - ahem - Philip Wylie. Commissioned to write the biography of an aging financier-philanthropist, Hero Wylie discovers that the old tycoon is guilty of multifarious fornications, industrial sharp practices, attempted treason, and coveting his own son's young wife. The girl ha.s a father complex, and the old man has a Mom problem - the results of incestuous love repressed in their childhood, naturally. Hero Wylie understands their problems, but when they start an affair, he burns his notes and walks...
