QuotationYesterday my arm hurt so much I could hardly type a letter (to Dame M[arcella Van Bruyn] at Stanbrook and to [Robert] Lax). Two days ago finished the first draft of an article on Camus (and went over it again yesterday and today making additions). I like his notebooks. Intend to write to Jean Grenier. Hope to write on "Zen and the Cloud." Got Edwin Muir's Autobiography from the U. of K. and it is most impressive.
