Notes and topics

"I have finished reading your and Mr. Kasrils' book about my husband in America and have found it exceedingly interesting and delightful." Three points worry her. There is no photograph of Alys. "She seemed to me over-played-down." There is "overstress on Lucy Donnelly." (Lucy was in love with BR.) Finally she questioned why there was a photograph of her in the volume. "I meant no more to Bertie in those days than hundreds of others did, if as much." She regretted not looking at the proofs. This letter was not sent, but something like it was sent, she noted.
