Mr. DESMOND MACCARTHY

DESMOND MacCARTHY begins tonight a series of twelve talks that are not in any sense educational, but designed to discuss famous books and the right way of reading them so that the maximum amount of enjoyment may result. Mr. MacCarthy believes that there are many people today with little time for reading, who often wish they could devote more of their time to the great books of our literature. For their guidance lie will range over many classes of books that have stood the test of time. discussing their merits and the appropriate approach to them.
