Summary
Expressing excitement at the prospect of reading Wagenknecht's book, "Longfellow: A Full-Length Portrait" but needing to delay to work on a talk about "the plays I saw in London during these past months"; expecting to begin the Longfellow book on Monday; returning to reading "Christopher Fig's translation of The Lark" [by Jean Anouilh]; disagreeing with Brooks Atkinson that it was "somewhat colorless as done there"; hoping he will come to New York; sending holiday greetings.
