Objekt 33 - Letter from Mal Diamond

6 sheets, 1 env.

A self-described stream of consciousness letter describing his hectic schedule, worries about his future with Frances [Whyte], a religious upheaval (worries that his faith is just that he has become 'clever with dialectic tensions and religious terminology'); is aware that analysis requires persevering through pain; thinks analysis is PS's only hope; Mal's father [Walter Joseph Diamond] doesn't see the point of analysis and is balking at the cost; a dermatologist has brought the scratching under control; thinks of suicide but is in no danger of getting on with it; sees that full term ends 6 Dec. at Cambridge and send his best to PS's family; D.A.G. Hinks 'was a hell of a nice guy'.

Year supplied from postmark.

Return address on envelope: 404 W 115th St, New York 25, New York. Addressed to Peter Shaffer Esq, Windyridge (Ryders Av), Westgate-On-Sea, Kent, England
