Garden Corner, West Road, Cambridge. - Thanks Bob for the 'splendid' second volume [of his "Collected Works"], which will join Dante's "Inferno", Shakespeare, Boccaccio 'in the task of propping, in these bad days, [George's] mind'. Reopens the letter to add a postscript saying that he has just read "A Custom of Thrace", which is 'very fine'; the 'last page of the book is very fine indeed'.

Thanks him for his letter, he understands his point, although Wodehouse wants a musical that reworks his ideas, one is still tied to his world, a problem; is intrigued that PS is interested in the musical as a form, not many decent writers seem that interested; would welcome the chance to work with PS, in part because he is fed up with the saying that the British can't write a good musical.
