And, if you wish to contact her yourself, I think I can share her email address with you if you communicate with me privately (peter@psussman.com).<BR/><BR/>PeterPeterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14231670513531200478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3273302883043906742.post-25127332304857924862007-11-23T09:04:00.000-05:002007-11-23T09:04:00.000-05:00By the way, Peter, if you are in contact with Marg...By the way, Peter, if you are in contact with Marge Franz, please tell her that Lee and Mary Soderstromm send their best wishes. We lost track of her some time ago, but there is a little nest of former IR Center people who remember her with fondness.<BR/><BR/>Mary<BR/><BR/>who is getting the Jessica Mitford letters this weekend.Mary Soderstromhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09265519935852076762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3273302883043906742.post-20973085447191669782007-11-22T02:09:00.000-05:002007-11-22T02:09:00.000-05:00Now I get it.

Of course, I too couldn't resist ruminating on that disappearing art in the introduction to "Decca."<BR/><BR/>PeterPeterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14231670513531200478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3273302883043906742.post-8431002693065839382007-11-21T09:33:00.000-05:002007-11-21T09:33:00.000-05:00The connection is a little lateral, and you have t...The connection is a little lateral, and you have to go back to a posting I had lasat week--marysoderstrom.blogspot.com/2007/11/dreams-strange-and-sweet-books-about.html--in in which I say that Frances Lennox in Lessing's The Sweetest Dream reminded me of people I knew in Berkeley in the 1960s. I told a little story about Marge, but I didn't include her last name. And, now, as I say above, I think Lessing got many things wrong.<BR/><BR/>Looking forward to reading Mitford's letters: this morning's blog has some more thoughts about correspondance.<BR/><BR/>MaryMary Soderstromhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09265519935852076762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3273302883043906742.post-62986817707497426922007-11-20T23:54:00.000-05:002007-11-20T23:54:00.000-05:00Mary, I was alerted to your blog posting by a Goog...Mary, I was alerted to your blog posting by a Google alert for Jessica Mitford. Thanks for the mention of my book "Decca." Anyone interested in more information on the book can find it on my web site, www.peterysussman.com.<BR/><BR/>I share your admiration for Marge Frantz -- I'm a huge fan of hers -- but I don't understand the connection or linkage to Doris Lessing. Would you please elaborate? <BR/><BR/>Thanks, PeterPeterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14231670513531200478noreply@blogger.com
