Mystery

THE STREET OF THE EYE--Gerald Bullet--Boni Liveright ($2.00). Simmering, sizzling, boiling, gurgling, spitting, the fear of God bubbled like Hell's lava in the head of Bellingham; it drove him out of bed and across the arid plains of Hell under a sky monotonously grey except where the sun, a bloody red, like a huge socket from which the eye had been torn, stared sightlessly at him. In this story, the first and most powerful in the book, Mr. Gerald Bullet adeptly spins out mystification until it becomes mysticism. The Enchanted Moment tells how a certain gnome made a top-hatted, cut-awayed, striped-trousered bondholder do a dance without top hat, cutaway, trousers. The Mole was the size of a pea. It was situated on the chin of a storekeeper's wife. Out of it grew three black feline whiskers and the storekeeper's destruction.
