JULY COVER: The United States is a mobile, much-traveled land, a concept artist Rudolph de Harak has chosen to illustrate with a closeup of our flag’s scurrying stars.
JULY AUTHORS: The transcontinental travels of which William Golding writes this month took place during his first visit to the U.S., though fame had preceded him via his already-classic novel, Lord of the Flies. V. S. Pritchett is a more frequent visitor to our land, a regular contributor to our pages, a noted novelist and essayist considered the finest literary critic in the English-speaking world. Hans Koningsberger claims the right to comment upon the American female, having written three novels and a play about women, while Maurice Edelman views Congress as both a Member of Parliament and a writer whose novels (most recently, Minister of State) have shown him to be an artful appraiser of English politics. Aubrey Menen, Indian-Irish by birth, British by choice and Roman by residence, has turned to the subject of Disneyland after the recent publication of his set-in-Tibet satire, SheLa.
