Emanuel Carnevalli, whose reviews, poems, and stories are published by

the Three Mountains Press (London : William Jackson, Took's Court, Chancery Lane) in The Hurried Man, was an Italian immigrant to America, who came with an ardent, energetic, ill-controlled mind to American literature, loved and abused what he saw, and tried to introduce his own fire and seriousness into his new environment. It is rarely- that we find a creature of such clear and fierce sensations ;, and, though no rigour and self-chastisement was in his nature, he may well act as a stimulus in our rather colourless modern world.
