About this book
A Book Without a Title is by George Jean Nathan. Its contents list seventy-four very short pieces, each with its own title, from The Atheist, Allies and Viewpoint to Veritas, The Reformer and Finis. Several take up only a line or two.
In The Atheist, a man cries that he worships no one, yet a photograph of a beautiful girl stands on his work-table. In Viewpoint, two men ride in a rising balloon, one watching the earth fall away and the other watching the stars come closer. In Conjecture, a pretty girl looks up at the stars, wondering, while the stars look down at her, wondering. The last title in the contents is Finis.
