Summary
Thanking Herbert for "the good words about World Poetry" in reference to his anthology ["A Little Treasury of World Poetry: Translations from the Great Poets of Other Languages, 2600 B.C. to 1950 A.D."]; questioning how Herbert saw a galley of the anthology, inquiring, "Is Scribner's sending out sets for blurbs, or what?"; noting that he has "almost - almost - finished" his novel; asking Herbert for advice concerning the publication of his translations, questioning, "Who wants to print a book of 40 Provencal lyrics which I've done?"
