WAYWARD Girls and Wicked Women : the title of this collec-

tion is, of course, ironic. Very few of the women in these stories

are guilty of criminal acts, although all of them have spirit and

liars and cheats; promiscuous heartbreakers. As it is, they are all

is difficult to apportion blame, impossible to judge - or, indeed,

to acknowledge responsibility and then take up the terrible

burden of remorse as it is summed up in Samuel Beckett s phrase,
