Books: Mention- Mar. 11, 1929

AN ANTHOLOGY or WORLD POETRY—Edited by Mark Van Doren—Simon & Schuster ($5). Discrimination as well as scope is in this fine piece of editing. The authors range from Li Tai-po to Sappho and Goethe; the translators from Swinburne to Edwin Arlington Robinson.

TWENTY THOUSAND LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA OR DAVID COPPERFIELD—Robert Benchley—Holt ($2). Little rambles with Life's funnyman, one of them serious.
