Iratdarab 18 - Letter from François [Denis Zaphiro]

2 folded sheets

c/o Mme M. L. Duchêne, 10 Rue Ch. Bonnet, Geneva, Switzerland - Has arrived after a journey by jeep over mountains; has received Peter's poem ["The Worm"?], and discusses it in detail: the sin of diffusion, suggests pruning and more sensual use of language, more suspense, notes he will not create lyricism by constant lyrical flows, concluding that it is a worthwhile failure; suggests he eschew self-pity; is writing something of his own that started out as a diary in Jan. 1945.
