Finds his wife [Isla Blair] whom Peter doesn't know, has written the letter he wanted to write, as an acquaintance of Peter's; 'The Battle of Shrivings' is the play he has been waiting for, one that addresses the issues of the times, without imposing a solution; finds that it picks up themes from 'The Royal Hunt of the Sun' and explores them, watched an interview with Peter on television and hopes he won't abandon the idea of a play addressing the Faust problem; played Atahuallpa in Bristol and was grateful to get close to the text and Peter's mind; will be going again to the play with his mother.
