About the Book

"The Blue Wound" of Mr. Garet Garrett is a bold book, and... a really memorable book. It tells of the search for the allegorical demon, or angel, who caused the War, of finding him, and then in a series of grandiose visions unrolls the course of history leading up to the terrible débâcle. In the background is that primeval curse pronounced upon man, that he shall eat his bread in the sweat of his brow, "the curse from which men flee and never escape." The first part of Mr. Garrett's fable, which shows in symbolical scenes how man is always trying to shift the burden upon some other shoulders than his own-all this is eloquently done and throws a cruel light into the depths of human nature. It is not a radical doctrine the author is concealing in allegory; he is not making distinctions between the haves and the have-nots, nor between workers with the hand and workers with the brain; he is pointing at that spot of sloth and slackness in the heart of all men which by the older religious teachers of the world (though Mr. Garrett probably is unaware of the fact) was taken to be the original source of evil and of all our woe. And the conclusion has something almost of prophetic solemnity: "Those who succeed in putting their toil off upon others have not escaped. They have only the delusion of escape. For a little time of ease and leisure they have delivered their future to the powers of destruction... Man must embrace the curse. There is no other way." But when Mr. Garrett comes to his remedies-alas! "Self-containment" is his panacea, a pleasantly ambiguous word. If he had left it in the region of general morals, his book might have been read as a better sermon than one often hears from the pulpit. As he develops it into a set of laws to control international commerce, it loses its effect as a sermon and only succeeds, so we think, in adding a little more gloom to a science already proverbially dismal.
