Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. First Edition. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Slight vertical creases (folds); slight browning to edges; else a very well preserved piece. 1 leaf (recto only). Letter to author/biographer Anthony L. Lehman, dated October 6, 1986: 'Dear Mr. Lehmann: I am very pleased that you concur i…n my high opinion of West of Rome. It is funny and sad . downright painful, as it strikes so close to home. I have given much thought to your proposed biography of John, and am still enormously flattered you want to do it, but some instinct warns me off . There are other considerations, such as a reluctance to commit my waning energies to so major an undertaking .' Signed in full in black ink at foot, beneath closing (no typed name).

Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. First Edition. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Slight vertical creases (folds); slight browning to edges; else a very well preserved piece. 1 leaf (recto only). Letter to author/biographer Anthony L. Lehman, dated November 13, 1985: 'Dear Tony: First, I must apologize for not having w…ritten you sooner, but I have been giving the matter of the biography a great deal of thought . It seems to me that since your biography would be intended as part of the Dawson series, that in itself alone is reason not to do it . it includes John in too limited a scope. While he is certainly a Los Angeles writer, he is now known nationally . Somehow my instinct tells me that this is not the right project . and I must go with that.' Signed in full in black ink following close (without typed name). Additional typed stamped envelope (with return address headed 'Mrs. John Fante') present.
