MacGreevy, Thomas, to Deutsch, Babette, 1965 August 15
Item — Box: 1, Folder: 27
Autographed letter signed, 2 pages. Dublin. MacGreevy thinks he told poet James MacAuley to send his book to Deutsch; now finds a copy at his bedside. He may also have told poet Brian Coffey to send her his Mallarmé Dice translation. Perhaps if MacGreevy had read the existentialists he “would have more understanding of some of the youngsters” [including Coffey]. He didn't love Sartre enough long ago in Paris to want to read him... little Simone Weill had me so persecuted with questions that I haven't been tempted to read her either.”
