Dear Miss Curtis Brown,

 

Thank you for your note and/theMS the of Mermaids in Lucknow which we will let you know about as soon as possible. Mr. Forster had already spoken to me about it.

Yes, Twilight in Delhi is still selling, and we have about 100 copies left. It is quite untrus [sic] to say that no copies have ever reached India; the demand has not been large, but it has been steady, and our bills have been paid. I do not quite understand about the Indian edition. Have we not been granted British Empire rights? I should like some more information about this.

 

Yours sincerely,
