The Mulberry - Bush and Other Stories. By Sylvia Lynd. (Macmillan. 6s.)--Delicate
sketches rather than stories, this collection speaks chiefly of the sorrows and joys of the very obscure, the unnoticed old maids, bachelors and children. They show much sympathy and insight and remind us poignantly of the small but powerful emotions playing under the humdrum exterior of even the plainest, most unnoticeable men and women.
