    Collins First NovelJ Library Autumn Titles experience Catherine Cotton This charming chronicle has no “ plot.” It is an attempt to present a happy, witty, simple-minded woman who attracted love because she gave it out. This is a very difficult type of book to write. The attention of the reader must be aroused and held by the sheer merit of the writing, and the publishers believe they have found m Catherine Cotton a writer with just the right gifts of wit, sympathy, and understanding. DOMENICO H, M. Anderson This is the story of a Cardinal of Rome, a member of one of the great noble famffies. In his youth something had happened which had thrown a shadow over his life. There are three great crises in his life, one of them due to this shadow, one to the contrast between his conscience and his ambition, and the third when, an exile in England, he falls m love. Miss Anderson shows much skill in drawing the character of this great and tragic figure.
