• EUROPE AT LOVE. By Paul Morand. (Knopf. 7s. 6c1.)

-The amorous intrigues invented and described by M. Morand are illimitable. It is sad to see so talented a writer of live French prose wasting his time on material more suited' to the cloying English of Mr. Arlen. The stories in the present volume might very well have appeared in La Vie Parisienne. They are deliberately indecorous and often tersely witty : • very nearly as tiresome as they are clever.
