Stuk 182 - Letter from Sir George Trevelyan to Elizabeth Trevelyan

1 item

Welcombe, Stratford on Avon. - Glad to have Elizabeth's letter, though sorry not to see her and Julian, even more so for Caroline's sake. Understands how tired she must have been by her first visit to the Netherlands in so long, and looks forward to seeing her at Wallington when she is 'really well' and able to come; travelling is very difficult at the moment. Sends back the two volumes of 'Tchekof's stories': "Three Years" tells as much about 'that strange people, and that loosely constituted semi oriental society' as anything he has read, even more than Turgenev and Tolstoy, though Tchekoff is 'not a genius of their calibre'.
