Three Books Reviewed For Members Of Employed Young Women's League

Mrs Leta Heath Neff reviewed three current books for the Employed Young Women's League and visitors.

Black Narcissus follows nuns whose palace becomes a site of tension and awakening, ending with greater humanity. Emmanuel on Magnolia Street follows a kindly English Jew aiding German Jewish refugee boys, suffering injustices but ending with some relief.
