Am convinced that you're right in thinking the Luckiest Man Alive will need an overhaul before it is published. But I'm with your Joan. If a third draft will get them to accept it, provided you make the changes that they want, then it's well worth doing. Let me know what Paul Romaine says - I'll keep my fingers crossed. We'll really have a celebration when you get a book published. I'll invite the whole world and serve sunflower seeds and Manhattans. That program on the Paris Peace Conference sounds delightful. Let me know what StanDale says. Presume you're gears are now changed for the windy city, and that you'll have a lovely summer just as soon as you can get the accomodations bit straightened out. Sure wish you well on this. And don't worry about me, doll; it's just the kind of thing I have to ride out. Take care. Luv 'n a hug, Esther P.S. Did my letter to Guadalajara ever catch up with you?
