Rounded Career
THOUGHT the Ngaio Marsh inter- | view (one of the "Portrait from Life" | series) brilliantly scripted but some- | what oddly put together. You may be one of those who think Ngaio Marsh’s achievement in the theatre outweighs her success as a writer of detective fic-tion-in that case you will be glad to have the theatre angle dealt with in the interview after Miss Marsh’s comments on ‘detective fiction (most penetrating. I thought, and garnished with an hilarious exposé of the goings-on at the De- , tection Club). And possibly there may be among Miss Marsh's fans hordes of prospective stall-holders who regard her running of a successful gift shop in preChristmas London of 1932 as one of the highlights of her successful and inspiriting career. and therefore will not find it odd to have the interview finish on this SE SSE ECE ae note. But to me it showed an odd sense |
of climax.
