Dear Jim:

This list is probably more in the nature of suggestions than requests
as I expect you will not have most of these yet, and might not have thought
of getting some.

First, I have seen anx interesting review in the latest New Statesman and
Nation (London) of scme African novels that look fascinating:

Arms Tutuola— My life in the bush of ghosts
Brave African Huntrhss
Palm Nine Drinkard.
G. Lemming - In the Castle of KW Skin
Chinua Aelube- Things fall apart
Sylvester Stein, Second Class Taxi.

I do not know about the last three but the first one seems well worth looking

Another interesting writer is the theologian Sergei Bulgakov, hard to get
and rather old now. one title is his ”Orthodox Church”, London 1935.

Rider in Iondon is publishing the collected works of D.T.Suzuki, the great
authority on Zen, and I would like to get his Zen and Japanese Culture if you
should happen ever to buy it (which I strongly urge, as tell as for the whole
collection).

And none do you have any one of these?

C.G.Jung— Secret of the Golden Blower
K. Berdyaev— Realm of Spirit and Realm of Caesar
M. Mayer» Madison Avenue USA.

 

I received a nice card from the Hammers and will be expecting them
back in November.

As always,

Gratefully in Christ
