Summary
Explaining at length and in very blunt terms that the character sketches Ivory sent her [see MA 23840.199a and 199b] are for the types of people she has no interest in and, indeed, feels contempt for; feeling depressed after reading them, feeling alienated from the work and from Ivory; recounting what Faie Joyce told her of Ivory and Merchant and their apartment and its furnishings, from her recent visit, and saying it all felt alien to her too.
