Happy New Year to you. I had one of the happiest Christmases of my life in the French Hospital, and my hand4 is slowly getting better. For Heaven sake, don't waste your time writing to me about "Sapphira"5! When I get back into the world again, I will give you a signal and you must come to see me and tell me what you have to say about that book, and many other things.
