Summary
Writing to inquire if he has any job in his office for "an admirable writer of Russian & English" named S.S. Koteliansky, as he has reached a point "when 'free lance' writing & translation, has a sense of insecurity."; noting that "' security' for him means £250/£300 a year certain", and adding "Stephen Graham's talk of the Russian books that go unpublished and untranslated put him (S.S.K.) in my head."
