The Browser Looks At Books OLD LAZY BONES, the Browser, sits for hours mooning through the books and can’t make up his little mind to start writing about them. . . . All so different. And so pre sumptuous of the Browser to dare to put his opinions of them into print. . . . He picks up Anthony Trollope’s "Barchester Towers” and “The War den” Just published in The Modern Library, reads what A. Edward New ton has to say about that gentle, mod est novelist who worked in a British postoffice for so many years and wrote novels on the side and then re tired to ride hoses and write more novels on the side . . . How quietly, how simply, the man wrote! no effort at the gee whiz! no wish to shock. Just day after day, with never a miss, he puts his stories together and they are still solid. You should read Anthony Trollope’s “Autobiogarphy” some day. Fascinat ing. Reticent. Then half an hour with Dr. Har vey Cushing’s ’’From a Surgeon's Journal”, merely a part of the half a million words that a great surgeon set down in his diary in four years of war . . . The Browser salutes it. And his salute is not the sloppy, sul len, indifferent salute he used to give officers when he himself was a sold ier; it’s a snappy one, with respect in it for a man who did his job well and knew what he was doing and knew how to put down the significant thing in his Journal. . . Comedy, humor, irony, but most of the time just details of that useful, heart-breaking ork of patching up broken human beings and hoping that some day they’d be half as good as new again . . . One he wrote in his book: “I have neglected this diary for a week and find myself somewhat weary of it ... 1 have, too, been hav ing a metal let down—probably sub diaphragmatic in origin, and writing at such times is not easy. The writing center is not in the angular gyrus it’s in the gastric mucosa." (The Browser must remember to ask a doctor what THAT MEANS) . . . The sort of book that makes you think and say: “I wish I knew that man. He’s real.” Teen the Browser finished Sylvia Thompson’s “Third Act in Venice” and cursed himself for a week minded idiot who should have stuck to his first decision that ft’s a silly book, supercharged with coincidence and fake suotlety . . . and anyway, he IS VM*> ■Jill ’-I ■ l “® ■ I ■ II ■ I ■ 1 ■ i “‘Wh ASnIK !IU.

But the Browser does NOT mind a hair-raiser like Daphne du Maurier’s "Jamica Inn”. There’s a book that makes no pretenses, no com promises. A good job about villains, wreckers, smugglers, murderers, drunk ards, thieves, poachers ,drak nights on the moors—and one brave girl who stumbles through horror and out again, into the light. Very nice book to take on your summer vacation, but not if you intend to spend it in a haunted house.
