What has been gained-and. what sacrificed-in the postwar Japanese miracle? These questions and others drew Simone de Beauvoir and her longtemps bon amt Jean-Paul Sartre to the East recently. and her notes on Japan. Japanese Days. are now published here for the first time Tl1e article will appear 1n her next book, All Said And Done. to be published this spring by G. P Putnam's Sons. who also published her bestselling The Coming of Age She's been extremely prolific since World War II. writing The Second Sex and The Mandarins and all. and that hasn't hurt Simone. But talented and beautiful Dyan Cannon spread herself as tight as chiffon on a drum. with predictable results. The heroine of The Primal Scream of Dyan Cannon suffered the intense alienation and depression common to successful actresses, and only saved her soul through the "primal therapy" of Dr. Arthur Janov. headshrinker to the stars. Here. Steve Enoff describes the reintegration of her ego. libido. and what-have-you through Janov's revolutionary techniques-a feat that made the reconstruction of Chicago after the Great Fire of 1871 look I like redecorating the billy. And speaking of feathering one's own nest. it's no secret that the airwaves are aflutter with the beat of Wings-that intimately post-psychedelic ensemble known otherwise as Paul McCartney. Linda Eastman. and friends. McCartney. of course. is the tuneful Liverpudlian who wrote the music that made the Sixties the Sixties. and now he and his lady fair are syncopating the Seventies. interviewed by radio personality Fred Robbins. the couple recollect a bit of Beatlemania, but mainly look to the future of their own new sound-"good-time music," they calf it, and they are so right. On the other hand. if your idea of a good time is marriage to a sadistic Old World gentleman whom you keep chained in the basement. you'll identify plenty with the heroine of Julia O'Fao¬lain's Man tn the Cellar (which. by the way, 1s the title of her new story collection)-a piquant account of the new hardware 1n the battle of the sexes. O'Faolain. who grew up in Dublin. Paris. and Rome. edited with her husband Not in God's Image (Harper & Row Torchbooks). a documentary history of women in Western civilization from Xanthippe to Victoria. and is presently penning Women in the Wall. a novel of life in a medieval convent. If all this talk of dungeons and nunneries reminds you of the last good book you read, it reminds us of ours, too. No matter how downhearted we are, a good Gothic romance never fails to depress us even more. So we hired Pat Tierney, a veteran of writing advertisements for everything from airlines to zwieback, and author of Ladies of the Avenue (Bartholomew House). the first book by a woman about the women of Madison Avenue, and of her own Gothic, The Powers of Lismarra (Ace). This month she proffers Gothic Kit. which will tell you everything you always knew about Gothics but never laughed so hard at before. Elsewhere. feast your eyes on the changeable Miss Cathryn "Cherokee" Lacey. Penthouse Pet of the Year. whose charming face becomes a living canvas for lhe cosmetic wizardry of Revlon's super makeup artists. Finally. Viva welcomes an extraordinary photographer-a woman who's long been one of the world's great pictures herself-Gina Lollobrigida . Lollobrigida closes the issue with a portfolio from her new/ta/fa Mia (distributed in the U.S.A. by AMPHOTO), and speaks the Last Word on the Great Debate: Latin lovers-ultimate amorists or left-handed bums? Neither. says Gina:
