Paperback. Condición: Very Good. All the following contained in a grey card file. 3 original signed letters from Michael Holroyd to Neville Braybrooke. The first two addressed from 7 St Mary's Grove, Barnes London S.W.13 dated 8th April 1971 and 15th March 1972 and the final one written on headed notepaper from 39 Studdridge Street London SW6 dated 16 July 1974. The first consisting of about 175 words encloses letters and telegrams from Ackerley to Lytton Strachey (not present) and the letter Ackerley wrote to him in 1963 see below. He suggests another contact and says he is looking forward to the collection. He mentions meeting Ackerley after he wrote his letter 'and he was very kind.' Finally he praises Braybrooke's review of William Gerhardie's 'The Polyglots' and 'Of Mortal Love'. Holroyd championed Gerhardie's works. The second longer letter consisting of about 450 words provides details of whom to get permission from for use of the Strachey letters and other useful contacts and information, he guesses at why Strachey's broadcast at the B.B.C. was called off and says, 'Augustus plods on incredibly slowly.' He ends with a reference to William [Gerhardie] Ð 'the relish with which he tossed down that frightful Gerhardie cocktail is still appallingly vivid.' In the third letter consisting of about 112 words Holroyd says he is looking forward to the Ackerley Letters enormously and that acknowledgement should be to the Strachey Trust. He says 'Yes, it is sad news of William [Gerhardie].' Holroyd has gathered he doesn't want to see people so he is focusing on promoting his work instead. He ends 'I hope Augustus John won't disappoint you.' 5 copies of the same typed letter from J. R. Ackerley to Michael Holroyd, the first copy has corrections and additional notes, some handwritten. A4. pp. 10., recto only., addressed from 17 Star & Garter Mansions, Putney, S.W.15. dated 7/6/63 and consisting of about 380 words in which Ackerley says his memory is so poor he can't recall how many times he visited Ham Spray, probably no more than twice. He does have two letters from Lytton Strachey, one inviting him there and the other about an audition the B.B.C gave him in which he apologises for 'what I fear was a churlish silence', but unfortunately the mice have eaten the penultimate word. Sir Michael Holroyd (born 1935) the renowned biographer of Lytton Strachey, Augustus John and Bernard Shaw. Neville Braybrooke (1923-2001) was a poet, writer, editor and publisher. 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. Very good. Very good.
