Lion Loathes, Likes Focus in Barnard Focus Review
The Barnard Focus issue features strong essays and poetry but weak short stories. Emilie Bix Buchwald’s The Marketplace in Boskowitz leans toward poverty portrayal, while Jane Elizabeth Richmond’s A Remembrance sits in poor taste. Mrs. Meyer’s piece is sharper and funnier, though uneven. An interview with Douglas Morris of the Old Vic, by Sylvia Schneider, anchors the issue with clear prose.
