I. People: just like you and me
The Emperor of China
Su cosa mi cosa; or, Busy busy busy
The offending member
The entertainer
I don't care what mama don't allow
Pushkin in English
The ugly duck
Father knows best
Portnoy's bachelor uncle
Aged eagles and dirty old men
Issues and answers: or, If you've tried it don't knock it
The smell of martality
II. Scholars: the soft recesses of uneasy minds
The blind men and the elephant
Stone-deaf theologians
III. Operators: if they don't like it here why don't they go back where they came from?
Adorable ideas and absent plenitudes
Mad dogs and anglo shrinks
A thrust in the hand is worth two in the bush
IV. Books in bunches: the fox and the grapes
Old pros with news from nowhere
Fiction and truth
V. Four ways of looking: books are not life but then what is?
Chamber of horrors
Good and proper (I)
Good and proper (II)
Mrs. Harris and the hend of all things.
