Correspondence from Aleister Crowley to Cora Germer

 

 

 

Ivy Cottage,

Knockholt, Kent.

 

 

Jan. 23d, 1930.

 

 

Dearest Cora:

 

How sweet of you to think of me. It was delightful to receive your charming little letter.

     

I am so glad to hear that you are quite well and enjoying yourself. What kind of weather are you having in Berlin. Here, it has been most unseasonably good, and on one day we had a very thick fog, but it cleared up in the afternoon.

     

I came down to Knockholt last night and expect to be here until next week when I shall have to go to London on business.

     

Marie [Maria de Miramar] sends you all her love. She speaks of you constantly, and wishes so much to see you again soon. She is working very hard and has made the most extraordinary progress in her painting. Her recent work is really very remarkable. You would not recognize it. People in London say that she can sell it very easily and get good prices for it. Isn't that fine? Do write and tell me some more about your plans. It is such a joy in this drab dreary world to have those little shafts of sunlight from your distant land.

     

Give my love, but not Marie's to Karl and if he does not mind to much accept some of my own.

 

Yours ever,
