Britain Grants to writers Sponsor's reasons for recommending the writer for a grant: I have been impressed by Robert Greacen’s recent work, especially his sequence of 'Captain Fox’ poems,and feel that this writer badly needs some relief from economic pressures and his arduous teaching duties,so that he can write the sequel to the 'Captain Fox' sequence already published and a second autobiographical volume. After a protracted silence,Greacen has emerged as a remarkable poet,who deserves every encouragement and help at a xxxxxx juncture that has put some strain on him. Michael Hamburger 6th AUgust, 1977 No. 29 9th August '77 My dear Derek, You will be interested to see that Michael H has to say about me. I've just phoned Howard S. who says he will send a supporting letter. I'm asking for £2,000 - not £20,000!! Thanks for your help in this as in so many matters. Love to you both - Robert Text Saturday, August 20, 2016 - 11:16
