[ilds] Release of From the Elephant's Back

[Bruce Redwine]

It’s arrived.  Beautifully done, James, an important collection.  Charles Sligh’s comment on the back cover sums it up nicely:  “I have no doubt that this collection will serve as a starting point for any number of new critical ventures into the life and writing of Lawrence Durrell.”

So congratulations on your 'pre-success.' The bad news is, of course, that I will have to wait for my copy.
