Summary
Discussing a Kashmiri rug she asked Ivory to purchase for her; discussing the part of Sanju in "Shakespeare Wallah" and possibly killing a character, which would give them a nice scene in an English graveyard; saying "we're so glad you're well again," and asking if Ivory has been eating "lots of luscious Kashmiri food"; telling him that if he's happy there he should "linger a bit longer"; sending love to him, Shashi, and Jennifer.
