Dear Mr. Conroy,
Greetings from Vienna! My name is Bill Butts; I'm a Fulbright teaching assistent [sic] in Austria (or rather, I teach to support my writing habit), and a long-time reader and admirer of your work. That is why I now write, as I have a special request I wish to ask of you. I'm hoping you might spare a few moments of your time and respond to this question: How would you rate underlined: The Disinherited among other "proletarian novels" of the 30's? Lastly, would you by any chance have a spare photo of yourself that you could inscribe to me? Thank you, Mr. Conroy. I enclose a stamped, self-addressed envelope for your convenience in replying.
Yours truly, Bill Butts
