Academic Freedom
in Malamud's No

Bernard Malamud has_ gain
high status in literary ran
especially with his last
b o o k s, "The Assistant"
"The Magic Barrel." His n
and s h or t stories have
acclaim for their high lit
style and the author's im
tive writing.
He is due for another ro
of applause for his latest no
"A New Life," an Oct. 4 title.
His publishers are F a r r a r,
Straus & Cudahy (19 Union Sq.,
W., N.Y..3). _
Unlike the previous two
works, "A New Life" does not
have a_ Jewish theme, although
the name of the hero, Seymour
(Sy)—(in his youth his family
called him Sam) Levin, sounds
Jewish.
Levin is a bearded young man
30 who gave up drinking and
t out on an academic career
an instructor in composition
Cascadia College in the
orthwestern part of our land.
e hailed from New York and,
as is related in the course of
the novel's development, his
father was a jail bird and his
mother committed suicide. But
he took hold of himself, gave
up drinking and smoking and
sincerely sought a career in
teaching.
Upon his arrival at Cascadia,
Levin was met by a couple, Dr.
Gerald Gilley, a superior in
the English department at the
college, and his wife Pauline.
At Cascadia, two things de-
veloped: Levin's share in the
battle for academic freedom
and higher standards of teach-
ing and his love affair with
Pauline. As a result of both,
he was discharged at the end
of his first year and, with Paul-
ine and two adopted Gilley
children, he set out to seek a
new life.
The briefing given Levin
by the heads of the college
and the details revolving
around the college struggle
for better standards makes
yialamud's "A New Life" an
outstanding study in impor-
tant social issues. Educators
will find much reality in the
discussions between the
liberals who were striving for
the right to introduce a lib-,

eral arts pr ogr ai
cadia,
ei • o
the
that was
Levin's i as a = introduced
liege. It was
as he leav
not desti d for him to
the fruit of his labor
is
illicit lo
affair acco
d for
his failure at the
ege.
The sex
nt is consider-
ayed in this book. It
could have been toned down.
Levin nearly becomes involved
in two other difficulties with a
waitress and a student, but the
affair with the wife of a faculty
member turned to love.
True, towards the end he
thought of fleeing and getting
away from the involvement
with a head of his department.
But the story ends on a note
of acceptance when Levin is
told that Pauline is pregnant.
Malamud proves in "A New
Life," his narrative skill and
his possession of a noteworthy
style. With his new novel, he
retains the role of one of the
best novelists of our time.
