Kennedy, William. FOUR TYPED LETTERS SIGNED and A TYPED POSTCARD SIGNED

by the Pulitzer-Prize-winning author to longtime friend and fellow author David Markson. 1988 - 1991. Kennedy agrees to recommend Markson for a Guggenheim Grant, asks him about a new Markson work, and tells him: "I'm just getting my feet wet in a draft of a novel I've been working at for two years." Kennedy goes on to fill in his correspondent with domestic news: "We've re-done the house in a major way and in another month I'll have a pool table in. I'd love to get you up here and see how well you misspent your youth." An affectionate exchange between two Albany, New York-raised authors of note. Fine.
