Description

MacGregor writes from New York City on New Directions Publishing Corporation letterhead to Creekmore in Jackson, Mississippi, regarding the Provencal translations and Arthur Rimbaud letters. He asks if any of the letters relate to Paul-Marie Verlaine, and suggests Grove Press or Noonday Press if James Laughlin is uninterested. He mentions sending works by Dylan Thomas, André Gide, Ezra Pound, Gustave Flaubert, Jackson Mathews, Louis-Ferdinand Céline's Guignol's Band, Kenneth Patchen's The Famous Boating Party, and Tennessee Williams's I Rise in Flame, Cried the Phoenix. He includes a postscript that states that Dylan [Thomas] died this afternoon. Includes envelope.
