Shadowlands1993
Jack:
Another letter form Mrs. Gresham.
Warnie:
I can’t remember any of it.
Jack:
Jewish Communist Christian American.
Warnie:
You may ask me how I know it was strange if I’ve forgotten it. Can’t answer that one.
Jack:
I like her letters she can be quite sharp sometimes. Listen to this, Warnie. She says :”I can’t decide whether you’d rather be the child caught in the spell or the magician casting it.” Her letters are rather unusual. She writes as if she knows me somehow. And, I suppose there is something of me in my books, isn’t there?
Warnie:
I expect it’s just the American style. Americans don’t understand about inhibitions.
Jack:
Oh she is coming to England. And she’s coming to Oxford. She wants to meet us.
Warnie:
Well she can’t come here.
Jack:
No of course not, but she does suggest tea in a hotel.
Warnie:
Tea is safe. A hotel is safe. Though she might be mad.
Jack:
No I don’t think so. She does write poems.
Warnie:
Poems ??? She‘ll be barking.
