New Books Review Highlights Bold Biographies and Travel
Alfred Tennyson by Charles Tennyson offers a frank yet respectful portrait that may seem overly favorable to the poet. Golden Doorway to Tibet by Nichol Smith and Loren Tutell captures a light travelogue but leaves readers wishing for a deeper description of the country. O Huge Angel by Howard BeER presents violent fiction with incoherent prose yet a strong emotional core. Hunter's Horn by Harriette Arnow delivers a lengthy home spun tale of hill people and first love with warm, vivid scenes.
