About this Item

To Neville Braybrooke, in response to a request for a contribution of juvenilia for his writing project on the subject - 35 years in the making and eventually published as Seeds in the Wind: 20th Century Juvenilia (Hutchinson, London) in 1989. (15 November n.y.): "Thank you very much for your letter with its interesting suggestion. Inspired by it, I made a search for some early poetry which I haven't seen for years, but could find nothing! I fear I may have destroyed all my early efforts. If anything turns up in the near future (& if I feel I could bear its publication, which is doubtful) I'll let you know." (7 November n.y.[after 1986]): "I think I can't provide a juvenile contribution . . . I haven't any suitable archives and I . . . recently found in a school magazine a poem so terrible that I would rather bury it!" The letters folded for mailing (one splitting slightly) but in very good condition. Seller Inventory # 19648
