Dr.
Oh so many thanks for "Love by Accident". Will read it to-night.
You're a wonder. I suppose no one ever had such a large number of addresses at which he was not to be found.
But I am fixed. Chiefly malaria—the worst attack in 25 years and more—cellulitis, and lupus—with a few complications that can wait. But I mustn't move my left leg, and do not hanker for you enough to go to look for you without it.
Thus, come early and come often, as the lady said.
I don't care if your letter does prove that you'll never be in or near London again.
Can put you up, poorly, but feed and water you fairly well. Allah is great!
Yours,
A.C.
P.S. The urgency is that you go through all the "inserts" and put the right ones into Vol III [of The Confessions of Aleister Crowley]. Then you and I must agree about it. For the galleys of some 160 pp are ready.
A.C.
