EUROPE'S MORNINO AFTER, by Ken
neth L. Roberts. Published by Harper
Bros. IS.
At the end of 1919 the author
made a trip through Europe to see
at first-band the conditions of the
belligerent countries after over four
years of war.
The nations were just beginning
to realize that the war was literally
at an end.
Optimism was dead! The future
cf each country was a matter of
guess work even for the brain of the
highest financier.
Into such a chaotic state the au
thor went to find the best, and the
worst, reports. He brings back all.
There is little else to learn of Eu
rope at the beginning of 1920 than
is found in the pages of the present
book. The ever-present humor of
the author fills the pages, and the
fights and rows which the peace con
ference started are given lengthy
hearings.
LINDA CONDON, By Joseph Hertsr-
shimer, published by (he Doran company.
There is in Joseph Hergershimer's
Linda Condon a strange combination
of reality and unreality.
Linda ,is clearly the creation of a
dream-mind and she could hold no
place in a practical three meals a
dav world.
We meet her first as a young girl,
living in hotels, with a mother, whose
one thought is pleasure at, no matter
what the cost.
Through this mother Linda learns
life, and life lived accordingly, repels.
She creates a dream-world and
throws herself bodily into it.
As a consequence she reaches mid
dle age having grasped nothing, and
meaning nothing, even to a husband
and two children.
Having never been real she has
nothing real to give.
To the. reader she appears as a
beautiful painting the acnievement oi
a great artist, and one wonders why
the artist neglected to create the
spiritual in his dream-maid.
The mother is real flesh and blood;
thoroughly materialistic Her goal,
a perfect marcelle-wave, taxicabs,
and nightly roof garden entertain
ments. The theme of the book" hangs
about Pleydon, a sculptor "Success
through renunciation."
Here the reader cannot help but
feel the keenest disappointment. A
beautiful and strong theme handled
more through inference than reality.
We feel we must be told what the
author is doing with his Pleydon
and wish strongly for the job in the
hands of a realist,
