Bernard Malamud: New Life of Easterner in "Cow College" of West
By John K. Hutchens, Shreveport, LA
November 12, 1961
"Bernard Malamud goes out to the Pacific Northwest to tell in A New Life, about a city-bred school teacher from New York who is starting all over again... Mr. Malamud, who has been out there, knows them, the spaces and the people. Men and women of good will must hope that the Oregon institution of learning at which he once taught is not exactly the Cascadia College of his book."
