David Jones : Letter from David Jones to Jim Ede: writes of Tony Stoneburner and another American working on the 'Anathemata'

Jones, David, 1895-1974

David Jones

<p style='text-align: justify;'><p>David Jones thanks Jim for his postcard; he apologises about his 'Life' [see letter KY/EDE/1/8/1/113]; very much behind with correspondence. Speaks of Tony Stoneburner very warmly and another American working on the 'Anathemata'. Admires the printing of 'The Fatigue'; very happy with the typeface which he considers to be Gill's best. Discusses the problem of reading poetry aloud, at some length, with particular reference to 'The Fatigue' and says it is important to reflect accents. Gives example of "Tom' Eliot reading his 'The Wasteland' as opposed to a 'trained actor'. From Monksdene Hotel.</p></p>
