THE LAKE SHORfe NEWS, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1921 "It deals with the grim battle for ex- istence fought by Valencia's humble fisherfolk who, with a land of flowers and sunshine at their backs, have ev- er before them a sea only ready" to turn from a shimmering expanse of peaceful blue into a thing of fury and horror and death..... .Vigor and sweep and color are in the pages that tefl of -the- homecoming of the fishing fleet, the old men and women and children lining the beach in anticipa- tion of the huge catch, the impromo- tu market, the oxen which land the fishing boats to and from the water, the blessing of the 'Mayflower' by Don Santiago, the village priest, forced even to climb the mast and sprinkle holy water on the rigging, all the while chanting unintelligible song that thrills and delights the proud owner and throng on the beach. ....Its characters are real. One smells the fragrance of the Valencian flowers and the salt sea. The story has the breathless speed, the vigror and sweep and rush of Blasco Ibanez at his best." Pan. by Knut Hamsun-r- This new novel by Knut Hamsun, author of "The growth of the soil", is entirely, different from anything that he has written before. Edwin Bjorkman says: "One may well ques- tion whether Hamsun has ever sur- passed the purely lyrical mood of this book, into which he has poured the ecstatic dreams of the little boy from the South, as, for the first time, he saw the forest-clad northern moun- tains bathing their feet in the ocean and their crowns in the Hght of a nev- er-setting sun. A wonderful paean to untamed-nature and to the forces let loose by it within the soul of man." Real Life, by Henry Kitchell Web- sterâ€" No one will attempt to take this book seriously, for "Real Life" is ob- viously not written with such a sol- emn end in view. It is written to amuse, and it fulfills its functions with great credit. Suspense, the most important part Of such bOoks,"is de- veloped in a very-cteveT"manner.

It sweeps one away for hours of ad- venture, mystery and romance. Wniter comes, can Spring be far be- sonâ€" The title of Mr. Hutchinson's new novel is taken from Shelley's "Odes to the West Wind," *L-^-----o Wind, if Winter cmoes, can Spring be far be- hind?" It has a plot which rings true, and yet is unusual, leading up to a climax, which, if written by a lesser artist, would' be melodramatic. Its hero is Mark Sabre, a man of unusual personality, kind and democratic and very likable, who is gifted, or, per- haps cursed with the faculty of seeing life from the other person's point of view, as well as his own. This beau- tiful character dominates the book, and will prove an inspiration to all who read it. "If Winter Comes" is one of the most notable of the season's English novels. » The Indiscretions of Archie, by P. G. Wodehouseâ€" Nothing in popular fiction today compares with this inimitable blend- ing of racy English and American in the mouths of whimsical and very human people. Archie is a none- such. One won't forget him and as long as he holds the stage one simply can't refuse to follow him on each new exploit. The indiscretions are not only uniqueâ€"they are enormously exhilarating. > Seven Short Plays, by Lady Gregory-- This^collection~of seven of the famous Irish dramatist's short plays contain: Spreading the News Hv- *cinth Hatvey.
