Dear Mr. Joyce
I am still without a letter from Mr. Marshall but I had a letter today
from another New York publisher, Mr. Huebsch.[1] I showed it to Mr. Pinker this
afternoon
and he said he would write to you on the matter at once. Mr. Huebsch has
read the complete text of your novel (which was sent on to him by Mr.
Byrne Hackett[2] of the Yale
University Press) and he writes that he would very much like to publish it
and would have it printed without any deletions.
I have written today to tell him that you have already accepted the
offer of another New York publisher, but that should these negotiations fall
through for any reason he should at once be informed and Mr. Pinker
would go into the matter with him. Though his offer is not so good as Mr.
Marshall's I imagine his firm has a better standing. He said he had already
been in correspondence with you & Mr. Pinker. | With kind regards
|
Yours sincerely
