The vision of Sakura. In Poland. 9:270. My. '28.
This author may be considered the link between two generations of
writers. Exiled to a remote portion of Siberia in youth, his first
important work was Twelve years among the Yakuts, which gave him
position and standing as a scientific observer. In 1930 he was one of
the official representatives sent by a the Polish government to the _ un-
veiling of the Pulaski monument in Savannah, Ga. He has written
many novels, most of them based upon the exotic things he has witnessed
and places he has visited in the course of his long exile. Now he is
honored as the Nestor of Polish writers.

A poem in prose rather than a novel, a hymn in praise of youth
and health and the Lithuanian countryside, the habits and customs of
bird and beast, all the strong and intimate impressions of nature.
Against the many beautiful descriptive passages is set the simple,
tragic love of Michael, the young aristocrat, and Varsulka, the peasant
girl.

friendships; the upsurge of memories and claims from those detached
years as a prisoner, all beating at once on frazzled nerves and lives
whose purposes have been either shattered or undermined by the
futility of war, by the feeling of a universe of futility.
