...none of these-and it enraged him. He had learned to suspect everyone, and if he thought he was being crossed or cheated, his anger was uncontrolled. At first, he would kick a door, his eyes lowered; then he would smash things and curse. Eventually he would work himself up to a fight. Once I tried to get him in a shower to cool him off; after half an hour he succeeded in putting me in the shower. We knew that his emotional problems were beyond our capacity to treat. In October 1968, Family Court ordered Walt remanded...

...humanism and the young's denial-may yet fuse. How? The Paris Biennale offers only the most tantalizing hints. This looks like the beginning of the decade of the art group: from the U.S., from France, from Cuba, Canada, Eastern Europe, well over half the work that the young sent to Paris was created by teams. The other new beginning is a cool fascination with man's urban environment as subject-dream cityscapes, 21st century living and working places, architectural fantasies.

Admirable though it is, her work does not work, precisely because it is all work and no play. She gets little help. Andre Previn's score always misses, without ever swinging.

...professed a policy of complete independence, "economically, politically and morally." Perhaps more than any, he followed it. Once, in 1951, when he felt the papers political independence threatened from within its top administration, Beuve-Méry resigned; he returned after the editorial staff refused to work for his proposed successor. Le Monde's working journalists now own 40% of its shares and have veto power over the naming of a new director...

...praising God" and singing Handel's Messiah. Though cynics may snarl "But who may abide the day of His coming?" they will be a small, silent (or at least ignored) minority. As Christmas threatens from Tokyo to Toledo, Messiahs are busting out again all over the world. The work is being staged, illustrated with color slides, tinkled through by tiny orchestras, blasted over by huge ones, shouted by great singers and squeaked by small ones. In New York and San Francisco, people are paying to sight-read the choruses at "Messiah sing-ins," and at the White House, President...
