Wystan Curnow had a chat with me coupla months ago passing through Melbourne for
the opening of the big Len Lye exhibition.
So brief a chat we didn't mention PoetryEtc.
He said he is writing poems, somewhat to the neglect of the big biography he is
doing of Colin McCahon the NZ artist...
He seemed well and cheerful.
He and Sue had been to Europe recently.
