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

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.
