Stewart once claimed Thunder on the Right as her least favourite novel. I detest that book. Im ashamed of it and Id like to see it drowned beyond recovery. Its overwritten. It was actually the second book I wrote and for some strange reason I went overboard splurged with adjectives all coloured purple. Laid in is a 16-line TLS from the Author dated May 1st from her former address in Edinburgh: "Dear Mrs Clark Your letter was forwarded to me by my publisher and thank you so much for your words of appreciation. I am happy that my work has given you pleasure. As you will see I live in the U.K. so mailing books for autographing is a slow and very costly business. It also means that I who am now without a secretary have to deal with the packaging myself and also walk half a mile with parcels to the post office and back again. There is no place for a car. Sop please do not send the book. I am enclosing instead a signed sticker to put in a book for your collection. Thank you for your interest. Yours sincerely signed Mary Stewart". Notwithstanding the Author's negativity towards this title the first edition is genuinely uncommon and this is a nice copy. Photographs/scans available upon request. Hodder & Stoughton hardcover
