Wodehouse and Vietnam in Unified Profiles
Book reviews praise P G Wodehouse for The Girl in Blue while noting it ranks as not one of his best, with a bustling mansion plot and witty but familiar characters. The second review lauds Tom Mayer’s Vietnam stories, highlighting vivid Soldier’s-eye detail in The Last Operation and its Playboy memoir labeling. Page references are clarified as Tim Page, still alive.

Abelard and Heloise and The Philanthropist on Broadway
The British group offers two notable plays. Abelard and Heloise at the Brooks Atkinson Theater steers a classic romance through period settings with Keith Michell and Diana Rigg in strong title roles under Robin Phillips. The Philanthropist at the Ethel Barrymore Theater features Alec McCowen as a reserved philology professor whose obsession with words drives indecision, earning a mixed but generally favorable reception.

Can't you hear me talking to you book review
Milton R Bass discusses a Bantam Books collection edited by Toni Burbank that compiles writings from New York City ghetto students in the late 1960s and early 1970s. He argues the book highlights grim realities, the need for outside political action, and the enduring humanity of the children despite harsh conditions. The piece emphasizes listening to these voices and the broader societal obligation to address feeding housing and educating disadvantaged youth.
