of a science-fictional element in one of Hughes's novels. I'm
not sure anyone ever said what that book was, however. Just
in case anyone was curious, the book is THE DELICATE APE,
which was published in 1944 but set in the middle 1950s, long
after the war is over. It's still a mystery novel, though,
with a solid mystery plot.

marble everybody is looking for in the SO BLUE MARBLE to be
imbued with some kind of mystical powers.
Thanks, miker
