Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Shadows, Vol. 20: The Creighton University Magazine; April, 1929
Modern literature is viewed with alarm by one part of the reading public and with tacit approbation by that part which believes a spade's a spade or a' that.
The alarmists decry the style or the lack of it in present day literature; they lament the new ideas and thoughts and the mode of expressing them. Those who approve see no great cause for worry, granting that there is a deal of muck written and read. These content that a certain amount has always been published and guzzled with avidity, citing as an example the broadsheet ballads of old.
