in pencil in top margin Field, Ben
160 Parkside Ave. Brooklyn, N.Y. 11226 November 25, 76 Dear Jack,
Early this thanksgving Day, I mentioned to Jeanette that Malcolm Cowley had written a piece for underlined: The New Republic, "Reconsideration," in which he asked: what books remain that can still be admired, looking back at the 1930's? I looked for him to mention "The Disinherited" "Tobacco Road," "Jews Without Money". Not a peep. Shallow, one-sided, academic.
How are things with you? Still lecturing? The autobiography?
I've finished the trilogy. It's in the hands of Cronin. I've also completed a book of short stories and have written to James Laughlin whether underlined: New Directions would be interested. Drop me a line or two, you Old Harp.
Our warmest to Gladys. Sincerely, Ben
