Content and physical description
ContentBM wonders what will happen to her sister after her brother's death. He's definitely not going back to live in Polička. He will return to Schönenberg at the end of November. Next week he's flying there for a few days for a concert. He has a pain in his stomach. Ruda has become completely estranged from him - he doesn't write. Things have moved on with the operas - Hamburg is giving Marriage, Juliette is going to Wiesbaden, Mirandolino is in Basel, Gilgamesh is in Turin. He only works in the morning, he doesn't get tired. He feels that their generation is already gone and that he is already an old composer.
