1 item

Shantiniketan, Bolpur. - Particularly grateful for Trevelyan's letter of appreciation for "The Gardener" as it has had little praise from critics; was warned to expect 'a great deal of acrimonious criticisms this time,' which has indeed come about. Trevelyan will know by now that he has received the Nobel prize for literature this year, which is 'a great honour to me and to my country'; thanks Trevelyan and his other 'friends in England, whose kind encouragement has been of such a great help'. Sends his 'kindest remembrances' to Mrs Trevelyan.
