By Milo Hastings. i A tale of the future, enriched with rare satire upon the world of to-day. In its powers of imaginative invention it rivals the best work of H. G. Wells. The City of Endless Night is a roofed-in and armored Berlin wherein the Germans, after the Second World War, have been isolated by the democratic World State. Into this stronghold of autocratic socialism, an American chemist penetrates and passes off as one of the supermen. Ranking as an intellectual, he finds his place between the seventeen thousand descendants of William the Great and the Blond Labor Brutes, who scorn to work for wages and strike for longer hours. The author succeeds also in interweaving a very genuine love story, an achievement rare in tales of the future. The City of Endless Night should gain for its author a distinctive place both as a satirist and as a master of imaginative invention.

When but a child of seven my uncle placed me in a private school in which one of the so-called redeemed sub-sailors was a teacher of the German language. As I look back now, in the light of my present knowledge, I better comprehend the docile humility and carefully nurtured ignorance of this man.
