Alfred Perlès TYPED BLUE AIRMAIL LETTER FROM ALFRED PERLES Wells Somerset to Henry Miller Pacific Palisades May 14th 1979. 1 1/2 pages. " Dear Henry / Had your last letter a few days ago it's the shortest you ever wrote to me - just two sentences which with a semi-colon in lieu of a full stop could have been reduced to one. / But your handwriting seems still as steady and vigorous as ever. Your handwriting only I'm afraid but then you can't be a near-nonagenarian with impunity. And I'm fast catching up with you at least insofar as the punishment is concerned. My daily consumption of all sorts of pills for survival is on the increase" "Betty Ryan agrees with you that Jay Martin is a louse. . . / Needless to say I'm extremely curious about your forthcoming opus on "Joey." Can't imagine that you can say anything new about me that you haven't said already before" Perles goes on to talk about Wells turning into a tourist attraction. . . / signed "Fred" Great letter in very good condition a couple of chips from opening.

2583Original black and white photo of Henry Miller inside looking out of the top of a Dutch door. On verso signed inscribed and dated by the writer "For Stefan. from Henry Miller Big Sur 8/49." A Typed Letter Signed to "Dear Friend" one page of browned paper with two repairs to vertical folds and three unrepaired tears 4to n.p. Big Sur n.d. Miller apologizes to his correspondent that he is no longer able to respond to mail about his books as he has no time to actually write these books any more. "I regret that I am unable to answer your letter myself. for years the letters from readers of my books were a sustaining note in my life. Of late. has become a burden." He specifies by writing about the book he is working on. "Since 1942 due to the pressures of other work I have. put off the consummation of the one book which means more to me than any I have written thus far - THE ROSY CRUCIFIXION. I want the luxury of being able to concentrate on this work." The Rosy Crucifixion consisted of three works Sexus 1949 Plexus 1953 and Nexus 1959 and were all three published together by Grove Press in 1965. Miller introduces his friend Emil White who would be answering letters for him. "Emil White who has volunteered to answer my mail is a close friend who lives nearby. He is doing this without compensation. Be kind to him!" Signed in full with Emil's address in Big Sur below. Emil White 1926-99 artist and close friend of Henry Miller. The Autograph Letter Signed by Emil White on Henry Miller personal Big Sur stationery with trapezoidal photo illustration of Miller at head is to a bookseller named Mr. Lindmark Sept. 28 1945. White writes on behalf of Henry Miller who had entrusted his friend Emil White to act as his secretary. "Enclosed is a picture of Henry Miller the only one he has at this time. Mr. Miller regrets he cannot do the "blurb" for your book store. As for B. Traven he knows. little about him. If you think you can get by the customs authorities you may try to import his earlier books from. Obelisk Press. Paris." In a P.S. written along the side margins "Can you obtain for Mr. Miller the following books at reasonable prices: Knut Hamsun "Mysteries"; Jean Giono - "Joy of Man's Desiring" and Duhamel." White's letter is related in spirit but unrelated in date and inscription to MIller's signed photograph. Condition: photograph shows some cracking in upper left corner but overall in good condition as is White's ALS but Miller's TLS on brown paper has been backed on Mulberry paper due to a full tear across a horizontal fold and splits along vertical folds. unknown
