269 pp. A book which probes the psychology of marriage among the intellectuals living in the shadows of the University of Chicago during the 1920s, The Red Pavilion is the story of Richard and Shirley Northway, whose love thwarts individual creativity, forcing them to live apart. Somewhat ordinary in character and plot choice, Gunther's first novel nevertheless shows his superior stylistic talents at an early age.
