These books are new additions to the 'Goderich Public Library. A • THE FRAILTY OF NATURE - By Angela Du Maurier (London P. Davies; 265 pages) Reviewed by G. J. McCleave Since Julian was six years old,. he has wanted to meet God. This is his story; growing up, becoming an Anglican- priest, continuously searching. for his Maker through a -life touched unmercifully with heartbreak, violence and crime. , Angela Du . Maurier,eldest of the three famous Du Maurier sisters, again reveals her keen gift of inspired observation in this modern novel set squarely in the world of today. She cleverly creates a tender love story seasoned by ' ' unusual and emotion packed circumstances. Julian's story is told by Alix, a woman ten years his senior and second wife of his beloved grandfather. Through a great and lasting friendship, Alix gives Whim the love and understanding his mother was unable to give. Julian turns to her for comfort when his father runs off with another woman, and for explanation when his mother marries a man 40 years older. They share heartache together, when "Grampy" dies, and again when Julian loses his wife. She gives him strength when he faces the challenge of a growing, conflict between duty as a devoted man of God and as a husband. This is a man haunted by the horrifying memories of months spent in a prison camp. It is a by G. Je' MCcloave. man A filled with lova and vompassion.. for hla fellow mesa. .driven to attempt murder. This tenderly woven story with its surprise ending will touch -the heart of every reader; MIRROR ON THE WALL By Dorothy Cray, (London; Collins; 256 -pages) - Reviewed by G.J. McCleave The plight of modern woman forcedby society and her min emotions to try to combine the complex female personality with that of the uncomplicated male. Sound familiar? It is the theme of this new novel by Dorothy Cray. Miss Cray, also author of The Freedom of Ruth Cardew 'and Swan's Feather, again applies her rare understanding of human relations. She employs the use of a wall mirror to show the reader the innermost feelings of each character. The,story evolves around the lives of three women: Elizabeth, whose husband deserted her twenty years ago; her -daughter, Althea, in business partnership with her own husband; and Althea's daughter, Jane, in love with a nonconformist youth of today. The three menin their lives, the "uncomplicated" males, are the victims of the well meaning females. The reader will find himself justifying the actions of the male and at the same time sympathize with the female. The author's positive approach. to modern youth is refreshing as she presents them with an insight into their own future. You will see the generation -gap.. quickly close as you realize each situation is basically very much alike. The book is recommended for its freshness and its lessons in understanding and forgiveness.
