Summary
Asking Ivory to come visit, "but quickly," as he only has the place-- "which is incidentally a whole village all to myself"-- until the 17th or 18th of August; describing the setting and telling Ivory he does not have a car, so suggesting that Ivory fly into Marseille and drive from there; telling him to leave a message with Telephone Publique in Oppedette if he hasn't received Chatwin's telegram.
