...very modernest of the modernists. It has the bevy of nude ladies which Artist Renoir painted in his pensive way and called "Les Baigneuses," and which the Louvre failed to accept as a gift from Artist Renoir's sons. It contains tortured Goyas, and stark El Grecos; bold, eye-shaking Manets, Monets, Picassos, Soutines, Matisses, Van Goghs. It has many a tired ballet dancer by Degas, many an illuminating piece of fruit by Dr. Barnes's favorite of all painters, Paul Cezanne.

Pyotr, the eldest son, is no less stupid than his father except that he knows he is stupid. His endless wondering about the right and wrong of things is what undoes him. Did he kill the clerk's nasty little boy by accident, he asks himself, or in malice, or to save his own son an evil companionship. He cannot decide that and a hundred...
