To Yehudi Menuhin,
January 22, [1938]
inserted into Schubert, Franz. Franz Schubert's Letters
and Other Writings. New York: Knopf, 1928; ; Drew U (Menuhin 19)
Cannot get German version of book, and people traveling don't need large books, so is sending
him a small one of the correspondence of an artist who died young [
Franz Schubert
]. Very sad letters, but likes to believe that if Yehudi had been there, his insight would have helped Schubert. But don't his beautiful creations overpower his
hardships, and is not hunger irrelevant to one whose mind is on fire? Happy Birthday, and
wishes him long years of accomplishment and joy.
