Daniel Aaron's chapter on Dos Passos, footnote 2
2. *NR*, XCIX (June 14, 1939), p. 163. In his review of *The
Adventures of a Young Man*, Farrell interpreted the largely unfavorable
criticism of the book as "a warning to writers not to stray off the
reservations of the Stalinist-controlled League of American Writers to
which more than one of the critics belong." Farrell had hard things to
say about Cowley, Louis Kronenberger, and Alfred Kazin. See
*American Mercury*, XVII (Aug. 1939), pp. 489-94.
