KENNETH L. ROBERTS KENNEBUNK BEACH MAINE
November 8th. Dear Mrs. Fuller:- Thanks for your letter, which I have forwarded to Miss Bell Nason, who has the Bradbury letter, which I am sure you will receive in a few days.
ARUNDEL, according to Doubleday's notices, will not be published until January 10th'; so, to my deep pain, you will not be able to make any Christmas gifts of it. They sent me the jacket to read proof on two days ago; and I saw with some trepidation that the front-flap proof read "Arundel---said by Booth Tarkington to rank with The Three Mus- keteers, Lorna Doone, The White Company and A Gentleman of France." I can easily see how such a statement may oblige me to hunt a cyclone cellar for some little time.
I missed the Black House; but Bill Abbott's description of it sounded real swell and expensive.
I am about ready to retire to my Italian funk-hole to incubate The Lively Lady, having rounded up all available books, documents and diaries from the Congressional Library, the British Museum and Kennebunkport attics. If I send the manuscript of ARUNDEL before I go, see that it isn't opened until after the book is published, please.
Sincerely yours,
Kenneth L. Roberts
