Rambler Oil $1.00 100% Pure Pennsyk { ee vas ~~ Book Review Dan Schnabel, Stanford University student; who is writing a series of” bock reviews for the Nevada City Nugget, this week chooses Aldons B . Huxley's novel, “Antic Hay,’ for his topic. His review follows: ; ANTIC HAY;. Aldous Huxley -— “Gumbril, Theodore Gumbril/ Junior, B. A. Oxon, set in his oaken stall on . the north side of the school chapel Hand wondered about God—,pondered about God—, speculated about God.’ You see, that is the chief business of our hero, Gumbril—to wonder,— to observe,—to speculate. Mr. Huxley, to be sure, allows Gumbril his moments of the physical; but one feels that this is only a sop, desingned to stimulate our Gumbril to pages and pages of the most interesting thoughis about women, the things they do, the ways they: act, and so on in the most fascinatingly brilliant manner of Gumbril-Huxley. The other characters too, are relegated to a similar role—that of thinking rather than physical performing. Yes, most of the action in Huxley’s novel is cerebral rather than physical. Only twice can I remember the large -skeletal muscles coming into action ,and that was when poor Mr. Lypiatt, when goaded to a frenzy. of rage, by the biting criticism of Mr. Mercaptan, and the smug stupidity of Mr. Boldero, became violent. The plot, if one may call that rather nebulous association of days and evenings a plot, is really not much more : than the necessary succession of incidents stimulating the mental apparatus of Huxley’s characters. In the very first chapter, Mr. Theodore Gumbril, Junior, B. A. Oxon, as he sits correcting a set of very stupid, very adolescent papers on “Pope Pius the Ninth and the Risorgimento’”’ (Gumbril was an instructor in an English preparatory school), sees most plainly that it will be impossible for him to continue as he is. There were so many papers, you see, and all of them so much alike. “Definitely, it couldn’t go on, it could not go.on. There were thirteen weeks in he summer term, there were thirteén weeks in the autumn, and eleven or twelve in the spring; and then another summer of thirteen.”’ At this point the reader can comprehend with greatest clarity, that. it just can’t go on. And then Mr. Gumbril ‘packs his two bags and goes to his father’s house in London, there to begin the New Life. Now there is something positively heroic about a man: who will do something abesut-leaving the Broove before it becomes too deep. How artfully Mr. Huxley enlists the sym pathy of the reader to the cause of Theodore Gumbril! Who will not admire the man who actually does chuck the nasty, stifling routine of work to go bravely forth, unarmed save for a tiny annuity -and-an-idea (pneumatic trousers), instead of just wishing, as we readers must? Of course grading papers: is merely Symbolic, that was because’ he taught—had he been a physician it would have been tonsils, had he been a man of law, contracts. Yet Theodore did not ever really have to worry about money. Mr. Huxley kindly saw to that by selling the Gumbril Small Clothes idea to Mr, Boldero. Which allowed Gumbril to lend a life conductive to ideas, al-lowed him taxicabs and the Completé Man, allowed him a life of contacts with other interesting People who also had ideas. For of course the novel is a story of ideas. Now for the characters. Our old friend Gumbril gives us’ an entree to a circle of very engrossing people. His fellow instructor, Shearwater, who lived for the kidneys alone (until he met Mrs. Viveash), and built a whole new world while riding on a Stationary bicycle clad only in a beach-clout;. Mrs. Viveash, ‘the lady all the men had loved at one stage or another of their careers, and who was so bored she will bore you too; Rosie, who married Shearwater as:a man and found him a bookworm, but later discovered some. clandestine pastures that were much greener; Gumbril . Senior, a delightful old gentleman who is a rank failure as &@ practical man and a thorough suo. cess as an architect and a philosg-~ pher; Mr. Lypiatt, the-poor-devii-whé" ~though-he-was-an-artist (how sad it was when the beautiful bubble burst —it was too cruel to think his own beloved Myra Viveash had said, “Like aposter advertising Cinzano” Coleman, that bearded rascal, Coleman, carousing, — burly, drunken, brilliant, Casanova Coleman; Emily, Who was so yery wholesome and sincere that she humbled even the Complete Man; the snouty Mr. Mercaptan, who wrote.a column for the Mirror and who always eventuall found just the right word; Mr. .
