The Behavior of Mr. Frumkin
The daily visitors to a publisher s office include those who are curious, friendly, and hopeful, but the routine is occasionally interrupted, as HONOR TRACY reminds us in this story, by the arrival of a mysterious stranger whose designs and whose manuscript are not easily disposed of. Everyone who has ever worked in the editorial sanctum will testify that her story, which comes to us from London, has the true ring of experience.
Hilly Butlin's Buddies
An English journalist with a taste for satire, HONOR TRACY published a year ago her first book, Kakemono, a sketchbook of post-war Japan, in which she recorded her misgivings about the American Occupation. Now, at the Atlantic s invitation, she scrutinizes the Butlin Camps, an English institution as sacred in its way and as full of unconscious humor as that Hollywood cemetery which Evelyn Waugh wrote about in The Loved One.
