Letter, 1944 Sept. 14 : New York, to Mr. Best, [n.p.].

Thanks Best for sending a Hemingway piece [i.e. Hemingway, edited by Malcolm Cowley (New York: Viking Press, 1944?)] praising the introduction by Cowley. Explains his publisher's refusal to allow his work to be included in a series Best had mentioned, and refuses Best's suggestion that he write love stories.

2 p. on 1 leaf : Holograph signed.
