Dearest Colette

Thank you for your telegram.2 I will arrive about one on Tuesday,3 and stay to tea if I may.

Gollancz4 has sent me the MS of your book5 which I am glad to hear he has accepted. I looked it through (it came this morning) and it seems most interesting. How much there is in your life that I know nothing about. I was touched by the passages about me, in none of which I have any changes to suggest. Much love.

Your
