Condición: Very Good. Typed copies of J. R. Ackerley's letters to Fred Urquhart contained in a light brown file. 25.5 x 21 cm. pp. 31. Numbered 1-42 in pen (includes one letter from Urquhart to Ackerley) and with handwritten notes attached. Occasional markings and comments in pen. The correspondence centres on Ackerley's continual criticism and rejection of Urquhart's work, however his comments are not entirely without encouragement. Typed signed letter from Fred Urquhart to Neville Braybrooke addressed from Spring Garden Cottage, Fairwarp, Uckfield, Sussex dated 20th April 1971 and consisting of about 545 words in which he says he has only just learnt that Braybrooke is in the final stages of editing his book on Ackerley's letters. He says he has numerous letters from Ackerley but they are in some disorder and would take him time to sort out. 'He gave me great encouragement as well as much well-needed criticism, when I was writing my early stories in the 1930s.' He adds that he did eventually publish one called Alicky's Watch in The Listener. He says he thinks some of his Ackerley letters may have gone to the University of Texas who had started to buy his original MSS and literary papers. On looking through one of his boxes that morning he finds letters from John Lehmann, Edwin Muir, Francis King, Edward Garnett and 'God knows how many others.' Typed signed letter with a handwritten addition from Fred Urquhart to Neville Braybrooke addressed as above dated 5th May 1971 and consisting of about 700 words in which he says he has found 41 Ackerley items. 'Some are letters, some are notes, a few are just words on rejection slips.' He says most date from the late 1930s and the last consists of a few words on a rejection slip dated 1950. He suggests two items should be read in conjunction with the letters, one is a draft of part of a letter from himself to Ackerley answering some questions and the other is a note from Maurice Ashley, Ackerley's deputy at The Listener, accepting his story Alicky's Watch, 'a little ironic that it happened when Ackerley was away.' He then goes into detail about letters from other people and says only one Ackerley letter went to Texas. In his handwritten addition he apologises for the fact his letter to Braybrooke c/oThe Spectator never reached him and says he appreciated the review. Handwritten signed letter from Fred Urquhart to Neville Braybrooke written on headed notepaper addressed as above (name of cottage altered by hand) dated 1st August 1971 and consisting of about 190 words in which he thanks Braybrooke for returning the Ackerley letters and says he was sorry to miss him. He is extremely busy with work on the paste-up of Dents' Dictionary of fictional characters and doesn't think he'll get to London in the near future. Fred Urquhart (1912-1995) Scottish short story writer who Orwell praised for his 'remarkable gift for constructing neat stories with convincing dialogue.' For many years he lived in East Sussex with his companion, the dancer Peter Wyndham Allen. Joe Randolph Ackerley (1896-1967) writer and poet and literary editor of The Listener. He exchanged letters with numerous writers of note for forty years and was openly gay at a time when it was forbidden by law. Neville Braybrooke (1923-2001) was a poet, writer, editor and publisher. Very good. Slight creasing otherwise very good.

More information available if required. The majority of correspondence' is addressed to Neville Braybrooke (author and Man of Letters.) A wide range of people from the world of literature and the arts had been asked if they had any letters from J.R.Ackerley that could be used as research for the book being compiled by Neville & June Braybrooke ÔThe Letters of J.R. Ackerley.Õ A collection of mostly short and purposeful letters. However brief, they convey an insight into a personal and professional world, with references to work, commissions, and personal anecdotes. Many of the letters express their admiration and respect for Ackerley: and those who knew Ackerley well give details of friendship and warmth:James Kirkup "I think I was his only friend to like Queenie as he did, so he wrote tome about her." Artist John Pipers's letters, together with Ackerley's are a purely creative dialogue concerning articles for The Listener on art exhibitions:"I did two long specific articles in consecutive weeks, called 'Young English Painters,' which illustrated for the first time ever Victor Pasmore, Coldstream, Richards and Medley. I made a point of this as it showed how willing Joe was to take a big plunge when he thought it was in the right direction." Writing to H.B. Mallalieu, J.R. Ackerly:"I am much fortified at having a poem dedicated to me." A copy of the poem 'Letter in Wartime' is included in the bundle of correspondence. An article from The Spectator by Simon Raven, 1970, is included: 'The Strangeness of E.M. Forster.' LIST OF AUTHORS sending signed letters: R.
