Highly regarded American writer (1900–1938) whose four novels, including Look Homeward, Angel and Of Time and the River, take a place among the high points of twentieth-century fiction. TLS, one page, 8.5 x 11, July 8, 1935. Wolfe writes to E. A. Cross of the Colorado State Teacher’s College, in part: “I returned from Europe just a few days ago and have just finished going through a great stack of mail which has accumulated here during the four months I have been away. That explains my delay in answering your letter of June 18 in which you ask me if I can come to Greeley July 30 and talk to you about the novel….I shall be delighted to come. Mr. Davison, in one of his letters to me, suggested that I could do so without interfering with any of the arrangements at Boulder…I shall be in New York another week or ten days answering these letters which have accumulated, and I shall be very grateful to you if you will write me here at Scribner’s as soon as you can and let me know if you still want me.” In very good condition, with intersecting folds, one passing through a single letter of the signature, uniform toning, a few areas of separation to the edges of the folds, a couple of staple marks and a faint paperclip impression to the top left corner, and a rusty paperclip impression to the bottom edge. After seeking solace in Europe after the uproar in his hometown of Ashville upon the release of his first novel, Look Homeward, Angel, Wolfe settled in Brooklyn to complete his second novel, The October Affair, which was released in 1934.
