Scope and content

Hôtel del Golfo, Lido di Procchio, Isola d'Elba - Thanks him for his postcard, is glad Venice has given him such pleasure; is enjoying Elba, thinks the youth of Marciano Marino and Porto Ferraio are on the cattivo side, will go to Tarquini to the Etruscan tombs, then make their way back to Ostend; looked at the mosaics at Ravenna on the way there; discusses the play ['Royal Hunt of the Sun'?], thinks it a good idea that Peter Glenville has acquired it, thinks he will help get it into shape; it is too long, and the action moves too slowly, and didn't understand the direction the play was taking either; it is not the type of play he is good at reading but very often enjoys on stage; a few weeks after his return he will go to Canada and the U.S. for three weeks.
