Scope and content
Describes his vacation: going to the [Paul] Nash Exhibition; and to the 'over-adapted' Pirandello 'Enrico IV', and doesn't doubt that PS has also seen it or 'indeed, you acted in it, adapted it, or whatever'; tells PS not to ask what he has read, but rather what he has learned: to question the TS Eliot-Basil Willey doctrine of 'the post-Renaissance division of sensibility'; encloses a photograph [not present]; asks for news.
