Letter from Willa Cather, Toronto, to Elizabeth Shepley Sergeant, 1921? July 6 : typescript initialed.

Talking about the heat; discussing the French translation of Antonia that was dumped on her for revisions; saying "I could do this with more zest if the translation seemed to me really first rate. It's not dreadful, but stiff and flat; here and there it reads like French, and then again it's like English lifted over into French,--about the literal way in which I would do it myself. I thought I had written that Damned book once, and was done with it; and now here it is with the same old problems, and in a language I know nothing about"; complaining about translating specific words and scenes; writing that her mother wrote to her and requests that Cather not visit until the heat is over and gives Sergeant her travel plans; asking if she heard that Greenslet broke his shoulder in London; mentioning that her books are not in stock because of the printers' strike which began in April, but the Knopf book has been selling well.
