As the 1977-78 campaign begins to unfold, Carrie Graves is the newest face along the Charles, and she faces a big test as the rookie coach of the Radcliffe heavies. But Graves's background in rowing gives her a stable foundation from which to work. She spent three years at the University of Wisconsin as the stroke and captain of the women's team, a team that has kept Radcliffe company in the national top five rankings for the past...

In a style that is as lucid, simple and accessible even in translation as any of his poems, the Memoirs unfold a philosophy full of warmth and hope, nationalism and internationalism. All this, despite having witnessed and written about some of the saddest, most discouraging episodes in recent history. Although his Memoirs end, as did his life, with the recognition of yet another tragedy, Neruda, who found hope in the past, would have realized that American dollars and cruel, powerhungry generals can not permanently retard progress...
