6 pièces. - L.A.S. 1 page. Lettre sur son voyage à Paris, «my favorite city». Enveloppe. - 5 lettres dactylographiées signées à son en-tête. Au sujet du prix Nobel de littérature. «I think my chances of receiving such an award are modest. From what I've heard of the commettee, that is. But I confess it is agreeable to me that you took the trouble [...]». Au sujet de son style et de son écriture. «Let me answer your request by sending you a sentence, not from my most recent book, The Castle in the Forest (which I hope has plenty of good sentences), but from the one that gives me the most pleasure in remembrance and that is the first sentence of The Naked and the Dead: "Nobody could sleep". I always felt that was a gift from somewhere outside myself since it certainly put the novel into full narrative speed whith three short words». Il recopie également pour son correspondant plusieurs lignes de Menenhetet. Enveloppes
