THE PIAuA by Elizabeth Spencer Undoubtedly there has been severe dearth of good fiction in recent years To some critics it seems not without reason that the novel has reached the end of its tether served its purpose as an art frm and is slowly dying of literary senile decay Certainly moat runofthemill fiction shows ample evidence of indifference to or inorace of the simplest rules of English grammar and composition and total indifference to the finer points of the craft of writing The more pretentious works of fiction attempting to deal with the chaotic moral and spiritual issues of our time seam to flounder inmorasscs of in lectual confusion This is con fusion which is reflected in ob scure and turgid prose styles which serve only to veil almost impenetrany the problems und er dlscusslon They neither tell good story nor provide the answer to problem it is therefore pleasure to the lover of good fiction to dis cover in this springa crop of new books two relatively short and simple novels which deal lueldly with definite moral is sues tell good story and are written by writers who have taken infinite pains to learn their craft THE LSHAPED ROOM lunar Reid Banks iauo Graham who tells her story in this book is far from beloging to the oldest profes sion but she has committed the oldest aloAs the result of single desperate unhappy act of adultery she finds herself about to bear child cast out by her father and cut off from the world She has moved In all her life Shut up in shell of despair she takes room in shabby district of London room in which she takes no fat erest beyond the fact that it is cheap has roof over it and door that locks on the inside Her only interest she thinks is to have herbaby andgetoback to the serious burinms of earn by not permit Glenn Ford

that broughther acclaim in Sayon are fire makes Cry for Happy quite worthwhile FAIR ATlBESl Midi at best fair picture Doris Day has the lead role and her presence greatly influenced my dissatisfaction good actress The argument that she hasan exceptionallygood voice does not justiiyher receiving lead roles in at least fivepictures made recently she has played identical roles in stereotyped sit ustions Nothing commendable can be said on behalf of the supporting actors Rex Harrison is wood en and Myrna Loy acts like the lush she was in From the Tar race Miss Day not LEGION amen SATURDAY JIINE3 oorao or unmeasured LEGIO LHALI scannersr ight Loco at the Hoxyls But unconsciously Jane has already negated her own lodlt fercnce By refusing to destroy the life growing within her she had already acknowledged certain responsibility for her own acts Relentlesst the un lovely room makes its demands upon her grudgingly and with many mental reservations she responds to those demands un til the room becomes home in which she grows to new maturity as the baby grows within her SIMPLE KINDNESS The oddly assorted inhabi tants of the house also play their part John gentle gigantic negro who earns precarious living playing the guitar in seey nightclubs breaks down her indifference for his simple kindness cannot be rebuffed From Toby moody strugl ing young author she learns without his realizing it the ex act nature and extent of the sin which she has committed Through coming to know all of them she reaches mature un derstnnding of the nature of life and love and looks forward to the birth of her baby not as an ordeal in be got through some how as punishment for her sloshbut as triumphant act of love Some readers may quarrel with the moral conclusions in this THE LSHAIED ROOM no one can say it is not clearly and honestly stated as Jane Graham tells her story in Lynne Reid conversational prose style so easy and pleas ant to read do one is uncons cious of style at all THE LIGHT IN THE PIAZZAI by Elizabeth Spencer For variety of reasons the idea of morality is linked clos ely to that of sex indeed there are many minds in which the ideas are as inseparable as ham and eggs But morality governs or issupposed to govern many human actions in which sex is not concerned and Elizabeth Spencers novel THE LIGHT IN THE PIAZZA deals with moral probem which has as little to do with sex as any hu man problem can have The simple story concerns middleaged American matron Margaret Johnson visiting pres ent day Florence with her dau ghter Clara Johnson at 26 But isnt it dangerous to in voni are when we dont fire department URDAY JUNE 1M1 combine glowing womanly beauty with the innocent charm of child Only her mother knows that because an in Jury in childhood Clara has the mental development of lo yearold Margaret Johnson loves her daughter not merely with Ihe natural affection ii molher for her child and cer tainly not with the hysterical passion of possessive woman forthe mild who can never grow up she loves her as human individual with the love ot one human being for anoth er Claraa affliction may be burden at times but she has never thought of Clara herself in that light SHAHERING PROBLEM Now in this ancient city shattering problem confroan her With growing distress she watches romantic attachment develop between her daughter and archancevmet young Flor entine as young and almost as innocent as Clara herself With the innocent guile of children they foil all her attempts to keep them apart or bring the acquaintanceship to an end she is hampered in all her at tempts by Ihe impossibility of making Clara understand and by her own reluctance to betray her daughter to the boy who loves her or to his practical mercenary but indulgent fath er temporary departure from the city only serves to show Margaret Johnson that in one respect atleast her daughter is woman with all womans yearnings and desires She sees with terrible clarity what per manent separation from Fab drilli will do to her beloved Magaret Johnson is an habit ually honest person The idea that she should remain silent give Clara generous dowry and let events take their natur of course at first fills her with horror But as circumstances postpone the revelation and she realized that the loss of Fahrlz zlo will detroy Clara the idea looks less and less possible She has no wish to unload burden on others for she would be content to have Clara aways with her but she desires above everything else Claras happi ness IMMORAL DECISION By conventional moral stand ards even the broadest Marg aret Johnsons decision was an immoral one she herself is fully aware of this for she is conventionally moral person But as she watches Clara de part with her bridegroom and mentally squares her shoulders to meet the rage of her bus band flying from the States she feels deep and abiding conviction that what she has done is right In contrast to the easy con versational style of TBEL SHAPED ROOM THE LIGHT iN THE Piazza is mannered and polished The simple story is told with an exactness and economy of wordrandrphrasain which humor and pathos pulse and glow with the warmth of life itself TIT An Examiner Want Ad COMING THURSDAY JUNE Available at acksoria nun amok Ihop emu Bertaub an Cnsdenr ram mlcy ocuaweuzr nrue Barrie Arena Ticket Office Allandase nru
