Greene (Graham, author, 1904-91) 4 Typed Letters signed "Graham" and "for Graham Greene" to Robin Midgley of The Haymarket Theatre, Leicester, comprising: 1 TLs from Greene & 3 TLs.s dictated by Greene and signed in absence by his sister and secretary Elisabeth Dennys, together 5pp., 8vo & sm. 4to, Antibes, France, 18th January 1980 - 10th October 1981, discussing his play, For Whom the Bell Chimes, "The play is intended to be purely farcical and therefore I prefer to think that the confusion is worse confounded rather than any light is cast. I am rather tempted by your idea that the woman police inspector turns out to be Ginger and I am also tempted by the idea of a completely new situation by the introduction of someone who has absolutely nothing to do with the play. Let me put all this up to my unconscious which produced Yes and No", and sending "extra pages for you to judge", and Yes and No, "... did you get a note from Michael Imison that the name of the dramatist in YES & NO should be changed. I had forgotten that Potter was a playwright. I suggested it should be changed to Privet", folds; and 12pp. of typed additions to For Whom the Bell Chimes, with a few small autograph corrections and some corrections by ?Robin Midgley, v.s. (18 pieces).
