Stuk 230 - Letter from Marie Sturge Moore to R. C. Trevelyan

Thanks Bob for sending her his new poems ["From the Shiffolds"]; 'how Tom would have enjoyed them!'. Finds a 'freshness, a kindness, a sincerity' about them; they bring 'some of the tonic air of the country'. Also much enjoyed Bob's reading, and thought it a success; even 'poor Desmond [MacCarthy] who could not find his words managed to say a few nice things'. Asks him to let her know whether the 'detached "Pensées"' which she left with him at the same time as the "Michael Angelo" were typed or handwritten.
