Notes and topics
"(In train going to see Allen) This letter is a cry of distress and an appeal for help. I find it utterly impossible for me to do any work or endure life if I live in London, and I know I can't live alone. I must find some way of enduring life, or else give it up."
"The truth is I am worn out. I need looking after, and some one to see after the mechanism of life and leave my thoughts free for work. Since I quarrelled with Alys I have never found any one who would or could take me away for holidays when I am tired or take care of me and now I find without something of the kind I am no good."
