SPEAKING OF BOOKS BY CLYDE T. SWISHER CHAIRMAN, DEPT. OF ENGLISH NYSSA SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL Madison Jones has written a brilliant and moving tragedy of the South today entitled A CRY OF ABSENCE. The novel deals with the transitional period of inexorable changes in an entire social order. No one has told it as it really is; the southern blacks and whites, and the good and bad in both sides, and the effect on the lives of all by outsiders who often lack understanding of the complexities of hard and cruel history. Hester Glenn, the central character, is at the outset proud, cold, molded to the past, and a staunch defender of the old customs. To her. the literal forms of that past are right, and all other forms lie in the direction of error and evil. Her possessiveness and selfishness especially affect her youngest son and warp his development to independent manhood. However, when a young black activisit is murdered, the murder and its implications are a profound shock to Hester. Her responses, as she slowly realizes how she and her son are involved, form the heart of the novel as it builds in tension and suspense. At first Hester will not admit her own error and guilt. She will not relax her grip on her younger son or listen to her older son. Thus her actions shape the terrible events that follow and inflame the conflicts in the society around her Hester is a complex character, real and terrible in her blind ness in her dream-world living. Her agony is deeply moving as finally she is compelled by forces deep within her to act in the real world. What gives the novel its universality is Jones’ examination of all the characters and their responses to change. Counter parts of Hester are the Delmores, people from a different region and culture, but as rigid in their view of the world as she is in hers. Here then, I suggest, is a perceptive look at a tragedy of character, of social turmoil, and of the effects of fieopie and events on each other. Favorite Foods By "Odie” Anderson Herb Sez We talk today of man des troying the world. This can not be. Mankind can destroy mankind but never the world. Centuries after the last man has put out his campfire the world will still continue on its course. We talk of this and that vanishing species. It was always this way. One species goes and another will take its place. We worry about erosion but there has always been erosion and there always will be. The proof is the Mississippi Delta and the Grand Canyon. I am talking about evolution, that gradual process of change which you and I can hurry up or slow down a wee bit but can never entirely stop. It looks like this generation of Americans have the idea that the entire future of the world depends upon what we do today. Even if we have an atomic war and all human beings are <kstroyed the world will continue on its course for several million years. It won't be the same by your and my standards but it will still be here by some standards. For the last 25 years I have been fishing on a short stretch of Goose Creek. In this short space of time trails along the creek have come and gone. Several fishing holes have dis appeared and new ones have been formed. Many trees have fallen across the creek, re mained for a short space of time then washed away. A road to the creek has become overgrown and is fast becoming a thing of the past. In other words, with no assistance or hindrance of mankind Goose Creek steadily changes. 1 know of one spot where the creek is deeper, and no trace of anything visable there today will be found. I readily admit that it is far past time for us to be con cerned about pollution and en vironment but I don’t believe we should have a crash pro gram that will prove a burden to industry and cost men thou sands of jobs. Because no matter what mankind does to day, evolution with fire, floods and insects will go right along making enormous changes.
