I was delighted & touched. Everything you tell me about my book is very encouraging & good. I begin my last chapter tomorrow, which I expect to have finished by the end of January. As for the publication it is very likely (between us) that it will be kept back until next autumn or next; unless my publisher (I don't know which one) wants to risk the thing, anyway.
