This is partly because of the story itself, and partly because of the device used in the telling Mostly I prefer novel to start at the beginning. and go straight through to the end, without tricks. The sincerity of "I Christine' more than compensates for the unneeded complications. Mr. Lewis pretends that an of his narrator just has finished a "biography of one Jim Horton, rugged Individualist of San Francisco in the great days.
He also pretends that the biography is pretty pompous, and that it dissatisfied Horton's sharptonued daughter, a spinster ed Juliet Since the narrator (called Walter Doane) is writer. it occurred to Juliet that he might write another book in which the faults as well As the successes of her father might be celebrated If you have followed so far, the rest 18 plain sailing. Doane do the book, and his story Horton. Juliet, her brother Clifford. and Horton's mistess, Christine Winton, is told as Doane assembles it from various sources includung his own memory.
He had known Horton slightly, and his children very well indeed. And so had friends of his. The book is therefore built up obliquely, and at she same time. in the style of a mosaic. Here there scrap about Christine's childhood, there a story about Horton' business acumen.
Gradually a vivid picture is built upYou see Horton as a not-remarkable, but interesting type of business man who made it a rule not to invest in businesses he could not run himself. You see his daughter Juliet as rather dirty-minded old maid. 1 but keen and salty withall; Juliet it was who furnished the house in which Horton installed his mistress. And Christine was Juliet's best friend. You even see Clifford, painfully respectable, readily shocked, the type who might have made an efficient but not too good social worker.
And lastly, Christine, who finally ran away with the man who double-crossed Horton, because she could no longer bear the thought of being continually pleasant to everyone. The binding which holds together Mr. Lewis' mosaic is the stuff of which San Francisco was made, it should be added. Explorer Says Ice Igloo Is Foreign to Alaska PORTLAND, to virtually no igloos are built of ice in Alaska. Amos Burg.
