(She isn't a keen reader but like most Germans is keen on culture (Kultur)in a theoretical sense. Also to some extent in a practical sense. Likes going to the theatre,art galleries,but in moderation.) Since Friday - today is Monday - I’ve had a spate of prose writing. Two articles of 1,000 words each; a xx 900 word review; a short xxxxnotice for BBN. I hardly lifted my head on Sat and Sun apart from morning Church service on Sun. One of the articles was a piece on Robt Lynd written,by request,for a new mag - the ULSTER TATLER. The other was an article on bookshops in Belfast in the 30’ s,written on the suggestion of my cousin Walter’s wife (an Englishwoman) who does a bit of writing herself and thought it might slot into something called BOOKS IRELAND (she knows the editor). The long review was for IRISH PRESS on Alistair Cooke's latest and the short piece on Iain Crichton Smith’s latest book of verse. When I think of my idle youth!! But work keeps one from being bored. I suppose that's why Bing stuck it right to the end - the money must have ceased to matter to him years and years ago. These new/new-ish Irish mags pay.

Love to you both - Robert My old teacher has sent me a copy of Robert Garioch's "Collected Poems". Original work + "versions" of a poet called Relli Text
