Rexroth, Kenneth, to Deutsch, Babette, 1952 August 13
Item — Box: 1, Folder: 12
Autographed letter signed, 1 page. San Francisco. Thinks Tale of Genji probably “the greatest work of prose fiction ever written.” “...pretty comic... But as you read on you will discover that it is a religious novel of the most profound import...” “Perhaps it has played a role in my life similar to that played by the Gospels or Capital in the lives of disagreeable people.”
