Expressing surprise at the award [the New York Drama Critics' Circle Award for "Of Mice and Men"] and thanking Lorentz for his cabled congratulations. Reporting that he continues to work on "a short satiric book with a lot of viciousness which is probably lousy but I'll get the viciousness out of my system anyway. Then I can go back to the long book or anything else." Enclosing the first page of a typed letter (MA 6426.19) that "I thought I had sent but it is in the drawer of my table so I guess I didn't." Telling Lorentz that he is "working hard on a manuscript I can't do or think much of anything else," and noting that he doesn't know anything about the publication of his article ["Starvation Under the Orange Trees."].
