Descripción

A collection of letters written during 1949 from Sven Berlin to Jacque Moran, during Jacque's time as a patient at Rosehill Sanatorium, Penzance. A collection of intimate love letters, '.I'm proud that you still love me and want me to marry you.' Sven also refers to Jacque's illness - '.don't worry about your X-ray treatment-it will be alright.' Referring to Doc Hall & his treatment for Jacque - 'It made me go warm with happiness when you told me his report. How good it is! Especially 'it has been arrested.'' Other letters express his longing for Jacque to be well & at 'home' with him in the Tower, the frustrations of not being able to maintain the loving relationship, 'I never see you alone these days, my lover - not so that we can really talk & that.' In July 1949, Jacque has a setback, 'So you must not be downhearted by this setback. Be patient and happy and all will be well.' There are other frustrations - 'Tom Heron has still not sent the cheque for the little ivory carving, so I can't yet send the £2 you need.' Sven writes about curating at the Penwith Society - 'The whole atmosphere of this place is somehow wrong for me - too tight and classical and cold-in spite of the rich green Alfred Wallis just on the other wall.No humanity.I don't know why I dislike the place.' 10th March '49, he writes, 'Soon I may start that novel. If I do it will be written for fun, and not to get my own back on life, to make a world of my own and say just what I like; make the fools look foolish and the good wise. I shall call it the 'Magnolia Tree'.'. N° de ref. del artículo 035567
