Dear Unwin

I don’t know at all whether arrangements have been made about the publication on this side of Schilpp’s volume on me. If not, I wish you could secure it. I have not seen the review you mention, or any other. I wonder what it said.

We have succeeded in buying a house here — it is impossible to rent a house in Cambridge — and we are on the road towards achieving comfort. I am giving University Extension lectures consisting of parts of my Western Philosophical Thought; they are very popular, and at one of them George Trevelyan took the chair.

Thank you for your kind words about my books. it certainly is irritating, when one thinks what rubbish gets printed.

Yours sincerely
Bertrand Russell
