Scope and content
Is going into exile to Eastbourne this Christmas. Curtis Brown have offered to negotiate his Kew book. Is now planning all sorts of things. Thinks Beaton will be frighteningly rich when he comes back from America. Discusses plays he has seen and heard about. Paul Robson has not answered his letter. Asks if Beaton has heard of a book called "Scarlet Sister Mary". Discusses films. Hopes Beaton's show sweeps Fifth Avenue.
