Lawrence tells me that Shelley's sales were pitifully small. (Except
for Queen Mab I presume which was pirated). Fred Beake, whose ambition
must still be to be the greatest poet since Shelley, will know all
about that. This morning Fred told me that when Auden was the best-selling
poet in the Thirties his sales didnt exceed 1000.
Back to the football which is getting exciting. Germany just missed a sitter.
