Notes
Description
The unsent letter, the unwritten letter, the letter that begins to write itself in the mind as soon as a human language is learned is a universal experience--as natural, as inevitable, as constant and continuous as breathing itself. The battling spirit must seek to make contact with, and to reply to, those loved, those despised, those cherished, and those rejected. In the summer of 1967, in Paris, William Saroyan, aged fifty-nine, believed he might be ready to put a number of such letters into writing, at last. The letters are addressed to: The Only One; Armenak of Bitlis ; Dr. Freud, Dr. Jung, and Dr. Adler ; Hovagim Saroyan; Calouste Gulbenkian; Guy de Maupassant; The Match Girl; Prof-Kalfayan; Sammy Isaacs; Al Devarine; Samuel L. Clemens; Dikran Saroyan; Joe Gould; Miss Carmichael, Miss Thompson, Miss Brockington, Miss Clifford, Miss Chambers; Honoré de Balzac; Sam Catanzaro; Vahan Minasian; Geoffrey Faber; Robert McAlmon; Lawrence Colt; Yeghishe Charentz; Adolf Hitler; Carl Sandburg; Emory L. Ralston; Dr. Harold Fraser; Benito Mussolini; The Lion of Judah; Jacob Ahbood; Dr. Anoushavan Chomp; L. B. Mayer; Anybody. The letters speak for themselves.
