2204527 Bishop's Road London N6. 24 November 1964. 1p 4to. In fair condition aged and lightly creased. Folded twice. The letter begins: 'Dear Bernard You probably know that I have just returned from Cuba and it was an exciting trip. Unfortunately one of the most depressing things was their very bad theatre; this is particularly because it is new and has no tradition but also to a great extent due to their intolerable isolation.' Although there is little that they can do Wesker promised to 'send as many plays and books' as he can. 'They really don't have hard currency to purchase more than a handful of international works' so Wesker has promised 'to write to a few writers and publishers asking whether they would contribute copies of their work which I would send together with the Leyland buses on a ship to Cuba'. Kops cannot imagine 'how hungry they are to be in contact'. He asks for copies of Kops's plays and of his book 'The Whole World is a Wedding'. He would buy the books but this 'would work out very expensive' so he is 'asking lots of writers to share the burden'. He ends with best wishes to 'Erica and the children'. 27 Bishop's Road, London, N6. 24 November 1964. unknown
