Dear Ian,

 

I enclose copy of the wrapper of STAVROGIN’S CONFESSION which has been sent to us for offer here. I thought I should query you since it looks as though the translation originated in this country and two at least of the three authors mentioned are Hogarth authors. I will await your comments before offering the book, for which we have had several enquiries.

 

Yours | David [signature]
